It's like a property in the past. Basics were OK. If you need to charge anything forget it nevermind having to refresh the wifi every time you mobe 10 yards. The other thing is that the evening staff were very distracted never mind the devils sugar that the family at the othe side of the bar were on whilst trying to have a glass of wine while trying to relax in the late evening.

Having stayed with them before I was disappointed with the breakfast no vegan sausage and no white bread for 2 day's out of 4. Room cleaning was also hit and miss failure to restock the tea and milk. Will reconsider staying in the future.

It took 10 mins before anybody came to reception to give us our key, the first room we were given smelt really bad, and whilst the second room didn’t smell, it wasn’t particularly clean. Overall, the hotel seemed very tired.

Because I booked through a 3rd party I was charged £5 to get out of the car park. The room was grubby and the shower would only give boiling hot water.
