Comfortable

Basic but comfortable. All quite dated but there's room to move and a full fridge / decent sized stove/full oven. Good heating was appreciated. Decent linen and clean beds. Bathroom floor needed a decent mop. Friendly staff. Good value.

Lucky we were only staying one night. I mean I guess you get what you pay for. Heater was terrible barely heated up lounge. No extra blankets. Plug sockets were wobbly and looked unsafe. Rooms need a huge revamp, peeling wallpaper, stains on walls and carpet. Blown light bulbs. I could go on but won't.
