The hotel and the room had a feeling about it. The window in the bedroom would not open. My wife felt very claustrophobic in the hotel and especially in the room. The receptionist told us we would be the only people in the building that night, this was not a comfortable feeling. As this was advertised as a hotel we expected it to have a bar and restaurant, it had neither. So, we cancelled the night and went to a motel in the town.

Parking was close and accessible, check in via the lock box was straight forward. Disappointed that breakfast didn’t open until 8am so we missed it. The TV wasn’t connected to the internet so couldn’t watch it and the room was a lot smaller than the photos indicated but the shower was great and the beds were comfortable

There was enough coffee, tea and milk and that was really great. The room was relatively clean and neat, but could have done with a little table on the right or an extension to the existing table, as it would then be easier to use the toaster and electric kettle. Parking was fine, but unsure if it is safe to leave our GPS in the car, as it is a public space. We would have appreciated some cutlery, e.g. forks, knives and tablespoons. There was just one teaspoon. We did not meet any of the staff except for three people we met along the way. The two young people seemed quite pleasant and friendly. Note: good to check the dust inside the enclosed toaster/kettle section as it was somewhat dusty. Great place for short-term stay, for shopping in the town area, and we met some very friendly and helpful people along the way. Lots of interesting shops along our route. One kindly lady informed us that cars had to be parked 'nose-front', as otherwise we would be warned by the Police.

Whilst the room was clean, we had to leave our classic car out on the main road. No one was at the desk to ask about secure parking. The key was left in a box out the back, in envelopes with names on them: honesty of people booking was relied upon, even with a code sent to each person booking. Shower water pressure could have been better.

This hotel only offers accommodation now. Reception desk is via front door but guests have to use the rear courtyard to access stairs and rooms. To be honest we thought that the hotel was closed permanently as there was no "life" apparent. Maybe a sign that is on the footpath maybe helpful to those who are travelling through.

On arriving at the property, it looked really good. Reception was unmanned but had a mobile number to ring. After that check in was smooth, however how the breakfast system worked was not explained. The property was full of red highlighted notices telling you what you could NOT do, like wheeling your suitcase across the carpet. Got to the room and it was small, the curtains were hanging off their rods. There was no wardrobe only 4 hooks on the back of the door. The room only had a single chair and insufficient Power points. The tea station looked like a cabinet from hard rubbish with a later thought of an unfinished top. The kettle did not fit in the sink, not that the kettle was big, just that the sink was small. The bathroom was tiny, only 950mm wide, the first time ever in my life I could sit on the toilet and my knees and head touched the wall opposite. The shower was tiled and OK, but the water barrier was a piece of square poly down pipe with silicone to hold it in place. Could bd not get the shower mat anywhere close to the shower. The TV did not work properly with only 2 channels with audio and video, all the other channels had either video or audio but not both. Bed was comfortable and clean. Then came breakfast: as choice of base cereals, with milk and very ordinary orange juice. Toast was either white or multi grain bread, tick there. However, the butter was from a communal tub, with of previous user crumbs. Jam and marmalade was also communal,

Could not even get the door unlocked for 10min. The smell from under the door worried us. After opening and not being able to remove key for another 5min we had a look in the room. Carpet torn up smelly and what we believe to be unwashed sheets. We left right away and went next door to a great little motel that was fantastic. I want a refund.
