“This South Derby hotel has the basics covered: it's near the A52, parking is free and secured overnight, and supermarkets are a short walk. Rooms at the back are quiet, though compact, and while the bathrooms could use an update, the continental breakfast hits the spot, in my opinion. If you are looking for a convenient stopover, it seems a reasonable choice.”
