No room service such as not changing towels or giving new toilet roll when not in the room. Aswell as the shower curtain being extremely dirty. Overall, it’s okay for a cheap place to stay for a couple of days.

Staff on the reception were extremely polite and helpful, specially as a blue badge holder i was allowed to park outside the hotel if/when there was a space. Yes the prices were cheap but you get a bed to rest your head ,TV and kettle ! The bed mattress and pillows were quite firm BUT I had a brilliant night's sleep!! My only 2 complaints are that the bathroom sink didn't have a correct size plug and you couldn't turn radiator on to heat the room up as it was rather cold.
