    Had an awesome stay with friends! We explored nearby attractions like the stunning Victorian mansion and Chester Zoo, which was a hit with everyone. The hotel location is perfect for making day trips. Free parking was a lifesaver too, especially when you're out chasing adventures.

    slight warmth

    The room was spacious and very clean, making it quite comfortable. The bed was nice to sleep on, and the whole place felt fresh. I really appreciated the great shower pressure. Air conditioning could’ve been better though—definitely felt a bit warm at times. But honestly, no major complaints!

    6.0

    With no air conditioning, the rooms can get uncomfortably hot, especially during peak summer months, despite portable fans being provided. The furnishings in the room are a bit dated, with reports of uncomfortable beds and poor quality mattress springs on the sofa bed. Some areas, like the dining area, feel a bit institutional with a school cafeteria ambiance and can lack appeal for a more relaxed breakfast experience. there's a smell of bleach that's off-putting upon entering the room, which may not sit well with everyone.
