Popped back for a return visit and a the hotel seems a bit busier than last time.
Around £113, so not overly cheap compared to some places. About £2 less for the Holiday Inn express near the airport, so the extra £2 is a good deal.

Lounge has now opened.

A lot of the drinks in the fridge are alcohol free beers and ciders Plus mixers and soft drinks / water.
They seem to have spirits etc. where the hostess hangs out.




Offered canopies when I went in around 7pm.
Salted and salt & vinegar crisps; biscuits to help yourself to.




Seems they added my lounge pass automatically.

The person on the front desk did give the impression I could have a continental breakfast in the lounge, although the menu says the restaurant. Will see tomorrow.

Got a 4th floor room with a coffee maker and fridge.
Don't think the coffee maker had ever been used as the tank was dry and still had a sticker holdingvthe tank in place.
