"Brilliant stay. The hotel is a fab location , 1 mile canal walk to centre. Clean & tidy with nice bathroom and a comfy bed. Thanks for supplying a fan too ! "

"This is a fabulous hotel if breaking the journey north or south. The only thing I would change is signage to get out car park. The happiest hotel staff I have ever encountered."

"Fantastic clean hotel and the staff were lovely. We did have a police visit to arrest someone smoking weed and another couple arguing for hours but I don’t feel these are a negative on the hotel and its staff as I’m sure these people don’t live in the hotel. Would definitely recommend. Rooms lovely and even though the couple were arguing there was no other noise. Not paper thin walls like other hotels where you can hear toilets flush etc. We will definitely be staying the next time we visit relatives in Darwen x"
