The room was clean the bed was comfortable but the shower area needed major repair. The flush button on the toilet was broken,the soap dispenser was broken and the shower doors didn't meet. The door into the room was difficult to unlock. The Hotel needed updating generally.

ELAINE

This is VERY basic accommodation, which the website somehow manages to make look cosy & inviting! Additionally, there was no hot water, & the room had two distinct unpleasant odors - one, the strong smell of greasy cooking from the kitchen, & two, an underlying musty smell. We cut our stay short from three nights to one night.
