Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located conveniently close to town, but the rooms lacked proper maintenance and explanation upon arrival. The service was friendly but slightly delayed. The location is good for exploring the town, although there were some minor issues in the room. The dining experience was decent despite some small inconveniences, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel offers good value for money with nice rooms, although some areas needed repainting. The big bathroom, despite being dated, was very functional with a good shower. The room was spacious with ample storage capacity. The service was friendly, ensuring a great sleep. The location was convenient for the town center and major roads out of Yeovil. The dining experience was a mix of positive and negative aspects. The facilities offered were satisfactory overall.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice and warm if you prefer a cozy setting but could get too hot without air conditioning. Parking right outside the room was convenient. The location was not perfect due to some odor issues, but it was generally convenient. The dining options were mediocre but had some positives like lovely takeaway breakfast. Overall, a stay with some highs and lows.
