Was a lovely hotel with lovely staff in a nice location, I do like the kings inn hotels but admittedly the bathroom wasn’t very clean nor modern and it did smell a little, but it was still good for the price we paid to stay there. The bed was comfortable and we had a sleep without any disturbances. Also breakfast was nice, and the bar maids were very nice and it was very calm and chilled to sit and have a drink in the evening.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Rooms decorated nicely although a bit tired looking. Staff very friendly. Bathroom had not been cleaned properly, hair still in the shower and sink and an awful stain running down the side of the sink. Room was advertised as having a rainfall shower, I received a room with a tiny broken shower head that was leaking so badly there was no pressure, it was also far too low, I’m 6ft and I had to bend down to shower. You can also hear all the noise from the corridor as there are large gaps in the door.

Great service, great staff. Decor a little tired.
The staff were excellent and the room was lovely and quiet. The beds were really comfy. I would only say that the shower cubicle was very cramped with a drench shower head which was unnerving for my elderly mum and the carpets and some fixtures were a little tired.

Not quite a premier inn
Check out on the Hotels.com website says 12:00 noon check out but its 11:00 am, main carpets need cleaning and a little paint in the room wouldn't go a miss Toilet takes required to pump the flush. TV signal on and off. Would stay again even though a few minor points.also first time ever I've seen a insect trap in the room at the side of the Bed and I've travelled the world.
