My only gripe was that the Building itself is not that well sign posted. I kind of knew where it was, but that was intuitive rather than directed. BUT good facilities, friendly staff, good parking-again signs could be better.

University campus, superbly helpful staff, small but comfortable and very clean rooms and no views! However a cheap alternative to your normal standard square box premier/travel/inn/lodge. Didn't try food as seemed expensive. Stayed an extra night it was that good!

Good hotel, breakfast was good too. Location is a tad out of the way from central MK but easily accessible and hotel provided a list of good taxi companies. Was £20 to MK Bowl. Staff all friendly. Would stay again.
