Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped for disabled guests, but the window was broken, which was quite unacceptable. The shower was great, but there was also a bath available. The service was friendly, but there were some communication issues with my requests not being fully understood. The location in the Durham area was convenient, with a restaurant on-site. However, there were some downsides to the overall experience.
The hotel is conveniently situated with good transport links and a must-try restaurant, although there is no quiet seating away from the restaurant or close to a busy road. Friendly service provided, including a super nice waiter and a very, very friendly receptionist. The rooms are well-equipped for disabled guests and have comfortable beds, but the curtains were sent for cleaning during my stay. The dining experience includes delicious home-made Majorcan products. The hotel offers great service, but some requests may not be easily understood. Wi-Fi is available but at an additional cost.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and had a bath, but having a broken window was unacceptable. The service was friendly overall, but there were some confusing moments like not understanding my request for cereal. The location was noisy with nowhere to sit quietly, although the staff in the restaurant were accommodating. The dining experience was decent with risotto served. Facilities were average.
