“Could be a lot better”
The hotel sits nicely near Stoke On Trent attractions, offers plenty of parking, and is close to other eateries; a Tesco across the road covers fuel and forgotten items. The restaurant menu is large with various options, and breakfast is decent if you want an English breakfast—British places don’t seem to understand a continental breakfast, which isn’t just cakes and cereal. The room was clean, had tea and coffee supplies, and the beds were made daily and comfortable, with no noise issues. However, the bathroom was far from clean: black mold covered the ceiling, behind the bath taps, and a stain ran down the bath from the taps; the shower control was dirty, and in the daughter’s room it was covered in green mold that she wouldn’t touch. The extractor fan didn’t work, contributing to the mold, and the sink stopper wouldn’t stay down. The cabinets appeared hastily assembled, the toilet holder was loose on the wall, and the light above the mirror was broken. In the bedroom, black mold surrounded the patio doors, and the wall lighting fixtures were all loose, with one nearly falling off.
