Stayed here midweek, booked via the internet for a rate of £68 inclusive of breakfast AND WiFi, that seems great value to me. Better rate still of only £58 if you don't need internet.
Rooms are standard format for recent Holiday Inn Express hotels, so offer small open hanging space, tea/coffee etc, desk, sofa and flat screen TV with good selection of channels. The double bed was comfortable too. Bathroom is small but perfectly adequate, with good shower but no bath. The heater in my room worked fine, and as far as I could tell was working all night. There is also a lift to all floors.
Rooms at the front of the hotel overlook the A449 (not the motorway as suggested in an earlier review) and traffic whilst audible was not a significant problem and didn't cause any difficulty sleeping.
Breakfast is again standard HI Express fare, so perfectly adequate but not for connoisseurs of the full English cooked breakfast.
Very convenient for M6 of course, being only yards from junction 13. Price very similar to Premier Inn brand, but better facilities and much better value especially if you take the WiFi inclusive rate and considering breakfast is included.
Room Tip: Contrary to an earlier review, there were no steps up or down to any of the rooms on the first floor...
