Overall Rating
Excellent
We had a room in the new part. We could choose to have it made up as a double or twin, with or without bed risers. Wet room, space in bed and bathroom for a hoist.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
Flat entry throughout with automatic doors into reception from the outside. Very friendly staff. Corridors are fine but no room to pass cleaning carts. The room was larger than average and in twin layout there would be room for a hoist in bed and bathroom (possibly not to travel in hoist to bathroom with hoist legs extended wide). Bed would need risers to hoist. Plenty of room for using an over toilet shower chair but very little space under the shower due to over installation of support bars. Small moveable side table. Very soft bed.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
We always found a blue badge space free by the entrance. Car park shared with the Table Table pub.
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
See photo. Good grip floor, full range of support rails (however note there is a height difference between the left and right horizontal bars of about an inch). Sink is higher than some accessible rooms - we take a portable as I lean into the sink to hair wash). Shower area is ruined somewhat by too many support rails and no shelf for soap etc. See photo. Noisy extraction fan. Shiny chrome fittings cause glare.
Staff
Excellent
Very friendly.
Additional Information
Good temperature control - heating and air conditioning. Rubbish pub - not enough people serving causing long delays at breakfast but good breakfast.
