Handy
location
to
break
a
journey
near
the
M6.
Good
sized
room.
Adequately
clean,
though
a
little
worn.
Very
gloomy,
with
the
only
overhead
lights
by
the
door
and
in
the
bathroom,
so
relying
on
lamps.
Comfortable
bed.
The
shower
held
its
temperature
well,
and
had
a
reasonable
strength.
Nice
towels.
OK
room
temperature.
Didn't
try
to
change
it,
so
can't
speak
about
the
cooling
or
heating
effectiveness,
other
than
to
say
it
is
very
loud
indeed
on
high
and
even
on
low
speeds,
the
rumble
reminds
me
of
sleeping
in
the
bowls
of
a
ship.
It
is
possible
to
switch
it
off
all
together,
though,
but
this
then
leaves
the
sound
of
a
distant
rumble
from
the
bathroom,
that
never
ceases,
plus
the
low
level
traffic
noise.
The
person
on
the
front
desk
was
cheerful
and
pleasant,
though
she
did
insist
on
telling
me
every
detail
about
breakfast
despite
my
attempting
to
stop
her
twice
and
insisting
that
I
did
not
want
breakfast.
The
big
letdown
for
the
hotel
is
its
stinginess
and
lack
of
amenities.
I
had
a
deluxe
king
room.
The
hilton's
own
app
lists
features
that
were
not
in
existence,
including
cable
TV,
and
details
about
the
bathroom
features,
Peter
Thomas
Roth
products,
and
complimentaryrefreshments.
The
only
thing
that
seems
to
make
it
deluxe
is
the
provision
of
4
coffee
pods.
There
was
only
terrestrial
TV,
no
bathrobe,
no
fridge,
nothing
special
about
the
room
at
all.
In
fairness,
I
only
chose
to
upgrade
because
all
the
regular
rooms
available
had
adjoining
doors,
which
I
dislike,
and
it
did
fulfil
this
requirement.
It
also
did
have
plenty
of
well
positioned
power
points,
which
I
appreciate.
There
were
the
usual
tiny
bottles
of
toiletries,
which
I
generally
like,
but
they
had
only
provided
1
bottle
of
each.
I
mainly
travel
alone,
but
usually
get
2
bottles
of
each,
which
works
for
me
because
I
have
long
hair
and
find
the
single
shampoos
and
conditioners
inadequate.
Not
here
though.
Just
the
one
of
each.
Luckily,
I
brought
my
own.
Making
you
pay
£6
for
parking
at
a
hotel
that
seems
only
practicabaly
reachable
by
car,
and
which
charges
£138
per
night
at
discounted
rates
also
seems
overly
penny
pinching.
The
biggest
disappointment
is
the
gym,
which
is
not
open
at
night
or
in
the
early
morning.
I
had
intended
to
be
there
now,
but
can't
be.
Only
open
06:00-22:00
weekdays
and
07:00-21:00
weekends.
I
had
expected
the
pool
would
not
be
accessible,
but
I
had
hoped
to
use
the
gym.
In
short,
it
does
the
job
of
providing
a
place
for
a
night's
sleep,
and
washing
facilities,
but
nothing
more.
