Decline of Premier Inn

6.0

We have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions but sadly it has declined and needs a thorough update. We will not be staying here until improvements are made.

Grate for the money

10.0

Grate location to get onto the a12 and the rooms are extremely good and enough space you don’t feel crammed in, the parking is good and out of sight from the public with cctv and to top it off the staff where grate.
