Worst room I have ever stayed in - and that includes multiple Travelodge bargain breaks.
Pros: Very comfortable bed. Housekeeping staff excellent attitude to guests. Cons: Room 35 : TV remote not working - no batteries !!. First replacement set already defunct. Accompanied by worker, agreed still not working. Second set sorted the issue. Bathroom sink plug jammed open. Took handyman an hour to sort the issue, explained a replacement needed to be ordered, but had managed a temporary solution. Multiple areas of damage to bathroom door, plasterwork, Ceiling entry of TV power/arial left as large unfinished hole. A disappointing place to spend my 76th birthday, although time with my

Desperately in need of refurbishment
Pros: Really nice staff. Reception staff and cleaners were so nice, couldn’t do enough for you. Cons: The rooms were clean, but very dated and in desperate need of refurbishment. There was a noticeable damp smell, and although the bathroom was clean, there were black marks in the bath and a shower curtain that’s seen a decade. We paid £116 for a twin room, room only, for one night, and unfortunately it just wasn’t worth the money. For the condition of the room, I wouldn’t have expected to pay even £50. The hotel needs refurbishment.
