The hotel is in a pleasant location, good for getting around Reading and the A4 and M4 area while also being conveniently close to Heathrow. The rooms, though showing signs of age, are acceptable for the price with key features like a powerful shower and a spacious tub. The service was fantastic, with a very family-oriented and warm atmosphere. The dining experience was somewhat lacking as items were missing or incorrect. Overall, a nice stay with some areas that could be improved.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable, but the damp smell was a bit of a downer. The staff was friendly and helpful, making me want to return when I'm in the area again. The location, although a bit lackluster in upkeep, was perfect for my needs. The morning breakfast was satisfying, offering a good selection, and the on-site facilities were convenient.
