Definitely recommend as a very comfortable stay
Checked in by very helpful and polite staff. The room was much bigger than I thought; it was spotlessly clean and bed was really comfortable. Hotel was by busy road, but there was no sound of traffic. The breakfast offered a really nice selection of cooked and vestals with choice of nondairy milks. I have stayed at a regular Holiday Inn and would say this Holiday Inn Express room was a lot bigger and more comfortable. I would most definitely recommend as a very relaxing and comfortable stay.

The room we stayed in was very nice and comfortable. The breakfast was okay - although the sausages had a very foul aftertaste that it was difficult to finish.
