Burleigh Court Hotel
Great location on campus with a nice bar and restaurant. Rooms were slightly more functional but comfortable and all we needed. Would definitely stay again, and the price was good.

Leonardo Hotel East Midlands Airport
Room was starting to look tired. Management lack off. Fire Alarm on at 2;30 still going off until around 3/3:15pm. From clearly an error on staff in a store room. Iam still waiting for a response from hotel. Wishing a refund on all 3 rooms.
