10/10 Exceptional

Nice comfortable stay

The check in system was down when we arrived staff were extremely apologetic and gave us a complimentary drink. The system was only down for about half hour once up and running was checked in quickly. Room was comfortable and had everything we needed area coffee etc. I found the hotel clean tidy and quiet. Staff were really friendly and helpful. The breakfast was really nice hot and fresh. It was a buffet type breakfast a good choice of food.

Superb!

I didn’t have great expectations for the price I paid, even though reviews were very positive. However, everything was superb, from the staff, to the room, the cleanliness, and the breakfast. Location right on the edge of key routes and a 10min cab into Central Bedford. Superb!
