The room and bathroom were excellent but the area for dinner was not the best. Only 2 staff behind the bar and they were checking a group of people in. O-one to take an order for dinner - was just told to order on the app. It was a bit of a soul-less experience - Just us and one other couple on a Friday night. Breakfast however was very good and included in our rate.

I had to make an emergency booking at the Holiday Inn Express after another hotel I had booked to stay at had a cocroach infestation. I arrived at 8pm, flustered and stressed. Your receptionist caled KC was superb; so lovely and calmed me down. And it was such a relief to find a lovely clean, well-stocked bathroom. I was only passing through but would definitely stay again!
