Mould in the kettle and on towels, when this was brought up they said they'd bring us new towels so fair enough, they brought the new towels at 10pm, three hours later mind you. In the morning went to make a cuppa and the kettle was full if mould. The excuse was "well its a 3 star hotel"

Staff were friendly enough on check in. Was surprised by the £3 charge for parking as thought it was free parking. He didn’t mention anything until after I had submitted my registration. But maybe it’s on the site somewhere and I missed it. Cut myself on the bed as screw was sticking out so screwed it back in and bed seemed to be half decent and half lacking springs. Very noisy guests but can’t blame the hotel for that.

Do not stay here, it needs demolishing. If you are desperate for somewhere to sleep consider getting a sleeping bag and sleeping on the streets! It was a walk in, walk out and find another hotel scenario!
