room wasn't any thing like the photos and it didn't have any towels or pillows, after calling the customer support we stood around for 40 minutes waiting for our new room number, the new room was ever smaller with a smaller bed. And the lock on the "private toilet" had been smashed off the door.

There was NO HOT WATER IN THE SHOWER. Room was grungy and sound proofing almost non existent. We weren't expecting 5 star accommodation but this was way below par.

Marks hotel is disgusting, bathroom and fridge had visible mould. The blankets/linen were stale smelling and the surfaces dusty and grimy. Hotel was noisy with the pub next door, was unsafe in the car park, drunk guys loitering and making comments to the young girls staying there. Something to keep in mind is this is a "long stay" hotel so there are people living there... and activities there that are... next door to a hotel. Not family friendly. Do not recommend it, will never stay there again, and would dissuade anyone from staying there. The pictures are not an accurate depiction of this run down, dirty establishment.

Online checking was available that was sent directly to my mobile phone with code access etc. Making it easier to check in at any time. Only odd thing was we had a private bathroom but it was separate to the actual sleeping room so you had two separate codes, but it wasn't an issue

The room was okay however I thought I had booked a room with a bathroom which I was also told I would be upgraded to due to having a young family and I wasn’t. There was no coffee mugs even though coffee tea and sugar were supplied. Other guests were highly disruptive with drinking, yelling and fighting until 5:30am even to the point of needing to call the police
