The hotel and breakfast were good. The bed for the kids was very clumsy, kids did not sleep well. The ac in the room did not work and it was very hot. We contacted reception and they had no fans available.

There is nothing bad about staying at the holiday inn express. The rooms are comfortable and fit for purpose. We were allowed to bring our two dogs in which made it even better for us travelling up to Scotland. The room itself was clean and tidy and beds made up for our kids on arrival.

We just stayed 1 nite in a family room. Clean but the room looked very tired and in need of an upgrade, especially the lampshade.

Enjoyed our stay here again. Very convenient to get to and find off the M6 motorway. We stayed here the day it opened 2 yrs ago and liked it so much that I decided to choose it again during our trip to Blackpool for a family weekend. I do feel the cleaners are letting it down though. The rooms were generally clean but lack the finishing touches like the mould starting to form on outer edges of the shower units, dirty hand marks on the walls, coffee spill stain by the tea making facilities. The rooms we have had (4 in total) have all been very generously sized, last time we stayed we were 4 of us plus a baby in a crib and plenty of room for all our stuff and baby pram etc. Main bed mattress a bit soft for me but was comfy once lying on it. I love the Dove and Lux soaps in dispensers and the new, modern hotel. Breakfast was fine. Things were running out but the staff did their best to keep up with the demand, working hard. Check in was efficient and courteous. Very enjoyable stay, would recommend it and would stay there again.
