The staff are very friendly and helpful. They helped us deal with parking when we arrived. £10 for 24 hours. The sign outside says £5 until a set time then £10 after that - come inside and speak to the staff as upon check in you will pay for 24 hours. The pillows are very soft so you may wish to speak to them if you like a firmer pillow. As we were staying for one night we didn’t ask about this. In the evening we had a drink and played pool, which is free and ordered some food. You can also play darts for free. I had asked about allergies related to food but after ordering we were told that the Korean chicken contained dairy so we couldn’t eat it, they offered a refund or replacement drinks which we accepted. The allergies are listed on their online menu however check at the bar also the Korean chicken seemed to have an error. The room was very clean and had a decent shower with two settings - overhead rain shower and a normal shower head. We paid £14.50 each for the breakfast buffet which had a wide selection of cooked food such as sausages, bacon, mushrooms, beans, tomatoes, hash browns, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, bread for toasting, fruit, yogurts, cereal, range of milks, cold meat, pastries, donuts, cake, baguette and a selection of spreads and juices they also had vegan butter and salted butter. Overall a good place to stay when in Ipswich, lovely view out onto the river and close to the football stadium if here for football. The city centre is approximately 20 minute walk with lots of restaurants and bars a close walk away.
