It’s a decent enough 3 star property in good location in town centre with car park. My bedroom was good standard. The building itself perhaps a bit dated. No issues for me with stay. Served it’s purpose well

This property was booked at the very last minute and very late in the evening after being let down badly on a previous booking. They were very accommodating and the staff were very friendly. No complaints about the room or the hotel in general, and felt they rescued from a very difficult situation. Thank you!

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed the night before going to the airport so we didn’t have to get up quite so early. Check in was easy and painless. Room was basic which is fine. TV didn’t work and channels wouldn’t tune. You could hear the door banging and people walking above quite loudly. Our room was ground floor and window looked onto the road which wasn’t too bad. Room was relatively clean - defo some DIY needed in areas. Main reason for low score was that water came through the ceiling on several occasions through the night. Luckily it was not over the bed but we were concerned that the cracks were worsening. We had to pile towels on the floor to stop the sound. We weren’t provided with a number to call in an emergency so had to wait until morning to report.

The staff was friendly, but that's about it. The state of the room was shocking. There was dust on everything, the room had a very bad odour and had to leave the window half open for the entire night just to be able to stomach the stench. I am pretty sure some other guests smoked there before even with no smoking sign on the door.

Check in was easy enough, guy behind the bar was very friendly and showed me to my room, that’s where I was shocked. Upon entering the room, I was hit with a strong smell of must and stale sweat. The room was very dated and did not represent the photos shown on the website! Carpet covered in stains and extremely dusty at the edges, wallpaper stained and peeling off, furniture marked and falling apart, window broken and unable to be kept open, incorrect information in guest book, stained and sticky menus / leaflets, bug crawled out from guest book and onto desk! Bedding was clean but covered in hairs, pillows and mattress rock solid and uncomfortable. The bathroom was pungent with strong smell of weed! Marked walls and handles falling off, scum stained toilet and sink, non-existent shower pressure & certainly no amenities as described on website either. I understand it’s cheap, but I would rather pay the extra
