Bad Points: Dinner was very poor. Breakfast was good
General review: Only just been taken over and 'teething' problems do occur. It should be ok when fully integrated,decorations completed and some staff adjustments.

Good Points: Good sized rooms, well appointed, comfortable.
Bad Points: Unfortunately on entering the stairway to the room immediately off reception, there were black bin liners and an old printer stacked up near to the outside door.This spoilt the initial impact of the hotel. (no doubt it was a one off). Just a comment on saving you some money. The water pressure from the shower head was very fierce and could not be controlled. The bath became half full of water before I finished the shower.I would imagine you are on a water meter so I would seek the advice of a good plumber who could save you some money.
As far as the restaurant was concerned. You had on display in the bar, a menu for meals for 2 for £10. We wanted a chicken and leak pie. We were informed that three of the items on that menu were not available. We then decided to go through to the restaurant and then ordered a steak, only for the waitress to return and tell us there were no steaks. We are easy going people and accepted it. Others might not have been so accepting. We finally had a very good meal at a very good price, together with a glass of wine on the house for our patience.
General review: All the staff were courteous and helpful at all times. I understand you are going through a transition period but you have the prospect of building the business into a successful hotel with one or two fine tunings.

Good Points: Bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good. Staff very friendly
Bad Points: When window was open train could be heard when trying to sleep. Heating was off and could not be turned on in the morning
General review: Everything was satisfactory and value for money however the hotel is rather tired and could do with being refurbished. The window panes in the bedroom were rimmed with black condensation which could easily have been washed off. Also the shower screen rubber could have done with a good scrub. Apart from this we had an excellent stay and would use the hotel again.
