The hotel is conveniently located for visiting Durham city center and offers good value for money. The rooms were a bit worn out and had some cleanliness issues, but the layout was perfect for our needs. The service was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, especially considering our difficult circumstances. The location was ideal for exploring Durham city but had some noise from the nearby A1.

The hotel rooms need a redecoration and were in a state of disrepair, with some aspects bordering on filthy. However, the staff provided a flexible service, especially accommodating a change in our stay duration. The location was convenient near the motorway, with essential amenities close by. Although the dining options were limited and not included, the stay offered good value overall.

The hotel rooms were clean enough, but there were noise issues that affected the stay for a family with young children. The staff's response to noise complaints was lacking. On the bright side, the warm shower was appreciated, and the location close to the motorway and family was convenient.

The service was a mixed experience; while staff were helpful and polite, encountered some rudeness and shouting over a smoking fine issue. Overall, the housekeeping and commercial services were satisfactory.

The location is convenient for driving into Durham, only a 15/20-minute drive away. Despite being close to the motorway, it was surprisingly quiet, meeting expectations well.

There were limited dining options on-site, and a McDonald's voucher was provided instead. The dining experience did not meet expectations for a hotel of this price range.

My stay at the hotel was comfortable and enjoyable overall. The rooms were spotless and the beds were very comfortable, although there was a slight smell of dogs. The annex for the children was a nice touch. The service was friendly and helpful, but there was some noise in the early morning. The location was convenient for accessing local areas and major roadways, though not ideal for peace and quiet. The dining experience was not as expected, with fast food outlets being the primary option. Facilities were adequate considering the price paid.
