My room was to the rear, facing away from the motorway so no noise. First impressions, I thought the place would be quite dated, but I was pleasantly surprised.
It's clean and all you would expect from a good hotel room, with just two niggles which were so minor I couldn't be bothered to report them (the electric radiator can be turned off or on at the wall but the thermostat was set high and not adjustable. There was also no hot water for a shower before bed but there was in the morning). To be fair, I've had more to complain about in far more expensive and pretentious places than this.
Ask for a room with a HIGH number, which puts you at the end of the corridor. I had room 2, adjacent to the entrance to the corridor and stairs, making for a noisy evening.
Dining options include MacDonald's, Costa, a sandwich from WH Smith or some fast food franchise I've not seen before. Luckily, Just Eat can deliver to the hotel and the lovely receptionist was kind enough to lend me cutlery and a plate.
In conclusion - very pleased, and would happily stay here again.
