The Sleepwell Inn

I have stayed here for the last 20 years, but have not stayed since lock down. A few things have changed. I stayed here for the first time in a while and noticed the following. The nice home made biscuits in the room have gone, there are no biscuits at all. The glass of port in the room is no more. These were little touches which made it special. The room was cold, it used to be like a furnace, however at 4am the furnace came alive, they really need to sort this out, it was too much too late. I had my lead to charge my phone, but there are no usb charging ports, however I found one on the back of the tv, which only worked when the tv is on. I turned the tv down and faced it to the wall, and it worked perfectly. In a positive note I forgot toothpaste and the reception gave me a tube. Breakfast- I used to be impressed with the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, this is now an additional charge, but the included breakfast is still good, although one of the poached eggs was a bit under done. Andrew made everyone feel welcome at breakfast, the staff are still amazing, which were always the highlight of my previous reviews, Would I stay here again, yes, it is still the best hotel I town,

Noisy Standalone hotel. Check-in down the road (not far). Most rooms on a busy road with a lot of traffic noise + could hear other roms through the wall. Not enough milk with no onsite reception to request more. Good size room and fairly comfotrable.

Start with the good........ bed was comfy an the shower was powerful. Bad bits......... walked into to find fire alarm blazing for 20 minutes solid. Mybroom wasnt in the hotel an was over 2 sets of traffic lights that say 4 star, it certainly isnt. I was given a card key in the sleepwell inn to find that someone was in that room. How embarrassing. So i walked back over two sets of lights for another key. So back over two sets of traffic lights to find the same problem but it was one of my colleagues this time so less embarrassing. So back over the 2 sets of traffic lights again for a 3rd key an back over the 2 sets of traffic lights to finally have a room. Tv was a postage stamp tv an the hdmi was broke so no firestick. Internet kept drifting in an out
