Noisy and smelly this time @ hotel we usually like

I do like this hotel. Staff always nice and decent food & bar. Room itself was tidy and clean but window open when we arrived letting in the smell of food from the very loud extraction fan outside our window. Had to close window to keep out smell which made room pretty hot. Fan was pretty noisy throughout the stay though one gradually gets used to it.

Good for Room 181. Very BAD for Room 147. Overall the Hotel is not bad. Located in a convenient location, walking distance to high-street. Hot spa for only £10 per person. I've booked 2 rooms. One is clean and tidy, the other is noisy and dirty. The room seems on top of the kitchen with hot air coming up. The staff rejected my request for changing room. She said that the hotel was fulled. At the end, she only provided a fan on request.

Room for improvement

Good location. My welcome was on the brusque side of efficient, my room small but adequate, but as seems usual with single rooms, was out back overlooking the bins. With a bit of cosmetic updating this place could be a real gem and I would stay again. The listing states ‘pool’, but when I asked about this at the hotel I was told it wasn’t a swimming pool but a plunge pool in the spa (for which you have to pay extra). So slightly misleading in my opinion.
