The room (3) was clean and tidy, but fairly obviously still old and tired in some parts; bathroom been re-tiled? but vanity structure edge-flawed - No soap holder in shower - No shower curtain so water spread to slipperiness level - Fan switch did nothing - Two ceiling lights in lounge area did not turn on - impossible to contact anyone after six-ish in the evening, and very LATE start up next morning.

Hard to rate as Reception was unattended when I arrived and departed so I didn’t meet anyone. The room was pleasant and comfortable but the shelf above the bench hadn’t been cleaned for a while.

Easy to access. Reasonably quiet considering it’s near a main road. The room was basic. We couldn’t access the wifi and there was no response from reception in spite of us calling and texting. Curtains were hanging off the rails in places, areas that hadn’t been dusted in a while. Not much sound proofing between rooms. Overall not bad for the cost I guess but certainly some room for improvement.
