Our room was not ready at 22:30 as it had been missed off the cleaning list so we had to wait 30mins for the night porter to clean the room for us and our two kids under 6 years old. Told we would get a refund still awaiting confirmation from the reception. The room smelt of smoke.
We booked a double room and a twin room. The twin room wasn’t made up nor a hair dryer present, when we notified the hotel they rectified it. Hotel next to a busy road and pub. I requested a bedside table but ended up using my case to rest my stuff on.
Clean room
We stayed here and had a great experience. The pub near by was great with lovely staff. The staff at the Purple Roomz was great and accomidating when we needed the extra bed made up. All in all it was a great experience.
The listing said the hotel had a restaurant. It doesn't, it has one next door which doesn't open until 9am, which was too late for us to have breakfast. This was a problem.
The staff were very nice and helpful and found me a bottle opener when I asked. The room was comfortable, bathroom was a bit outdated and worn but v clean and the cost was very reasonable so I was very happy with it.
Only other issue was that there was only one plug socket and it was above the built-in table and was so close to the table that I couldn't plug in my phone charger, which was a problem as I needed to charge my phone to use it as a sat-nav for a 6-hour drive the next day. Also, would be nice to have a plug socket near the bed.

Adequate for single night - if sleeping only.
This hotel is a bit run down and shabby but it served it's purpose as a bed for the night, which thankfully was very comfortable.
What was not so good was the hideously noisy fan in the bathroom, taps with dodgy valves that suddenly burst and soaked my trousers, a borken thermostat and lights above the dresser that could not be turned off. I hunted everywhere and tried everyt switch but had to sleep with the light on. When I checked in at 2pm I was met with a n ipression of walking into a furnace, The room stat was registering 30c and it felt it. There was a big cross on it in marker pen and it could not be adjusted so I just turned off the electric radiator and opened the window. When I returned at midnight it was down to a more respectable 20c.
I did enjoy the decent size flat screen TV (I expected an old CRT) for a short period befor I retired.
In need of knocking down and starting again but for one night it was fine if a little overpriced at £60. I didn't report my problems to the receptionist due to lethargy and time contrainsts as well as my short stay.

Glad I gave it a try.
I was dubious about my stay because when I mentioned where I was staying to the people at the company I was visiting they all looked horrified and suggested I was making some sort of terrible mistake.
But to be honest there was not much difference to some of the premier inns I have stayed in.
And it was all absolutely fine.
Only thing that needs sorting out is the fact the attached pub doesn’t start breakfast until 9:00 am which is useless for business travellers.

Near M6
It’s a ex premier inn. Staff are great it’s clean warm free parking and a good pub on site on very reasonably priced.
Ideal spot for our overnight stop off between York and Blackpool. This is clearly a repurposed Premier Inn and yes it is a little dated. Beyond that, comfy bed, great shower and a warm welcome, what’s no to love!
