Disappointing
My second short stay here and it will be my last. Double room was very dated - as was my previous experience - butvthe renovated rooms are more expensive. This room, like my last, did not have and power sockets by the bed. Trailing extension lead and aerial lead below TV - no PAT stickers and also a hazard. Mattress had collapsed on side when you sat down on it. Shower was a basic shower head off taps. No water pressure and fluctuated between hot and cold. Room was cold as the temp outside was below freezing and the heating didn't seem to warm inside enough. Lift in corridor has a loud announcement which could be heard every time the lift doors opened on the 2nd floor - and my room wasnt close to the lift! Overall a disappointing and underwhelming experience. Only the off season low prices redeemed it. Will go to Premier Inn next time!

a couple of snags
I was in a twin room which was a bit tired but very functional. I stayed 3 nights. Each day the lock did not open after midday. A trip down to reception reset the lock with no problems. The breakfast was a hot buffet. The cooking batches were too big. This meant a wait between refreshes in which time someone had taken my table.
