10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, beautiful building, super friendly staff and immaculate room"

Cedar Court Bradford

8/10 Good

"Overall stay was quite impressive. First time staying here. I stayed 4 nights with my son. Large car park and long was impressively so big. Cleanliness was good and staff were good too. A bit of let down which I could have taken advantage of. The closure on my door was not working which means it never closed itself so had to ensure the door was closed. I had gone out and when I returned to find my door was left wide open. I had gone down to reception only for the duty manager to be making excuses for why it may have been left opened. I had to stop him and say rather than make excuses call your housekeeping team to find out when they attended my room. I found out the room was left open for at least half hour. I had high value items in the room thankfully nothing was missing. Other than that I enjoyed the stay"
