OK stay

Liked: Good location, friendly staff.
Disliked: Bed was very hard. Breakfast was a bit hit and miss. Pancakes were luke warm and bacon a bit tuff.

Passable

Liked: The room was a good size with a decent walk in shower. Good sized TV but limited channels. Ideally situated to visit Canterbury as the park and ride is two minutes away and the park and ride service is brilliant. The hotel staff were all very friendly, polite, and helpful. Good parking and easy to get to via the A2.
Disliked: The bed was rock hard giving us two nights of poor sleep. The common areas like the bar and restaurant areas would benefit from a good dusting. The Wi-Fi is poor and keeps dropping out. They restaurant menu is varied but it's pricy for what's on the plate and at breakfast they only provide multi-grain bread without a white bread option so if you are in the Crohns/Collitis/IBS category you'll have to forego the toast. On balance it isn't a hotel we'd use again.
