Booking in is not the time to find out that the breakfast you paid for is only cereal and fruit - anything else is additional. Then find out that the room is overlooking a building site with 24 hour working. First night ok as constant rain, but second night spent awake listening to diggers reversing. Tiny room, hot with no way to ventilate. I could go on. Will be complaining

£130 for a tip of a room 4m x 4m. This is a 1980s £15 per night Blackpool B&B at best. Barely space to walk around the bed, There are roadworks outside the hotel (Months ongoing) so a diesel generator ran all night outside the bedroom window - but the owner did give us earplugs when we checked in,and a 6ft x 3ft piece of insulation was resting against the stained net curtains. Carpets stained and threadbare, "Buffet breakfast" was cereal and toast. I stay in hotels 2/3 nights every week for work and for £100-£130 you can get you nice hotels with a pool and a brakfast not in a packet. This is an absolute sh1theap you should avoid like the plague. Whoever gave this place 10/10 outstanding reviews (or anything above 2/10) are obviously blood relatives of the owners or the owners.....................

The owner said he tried to tell us about the construction by the railroad and asked that guests get the information before they arrive. He was wonderful and our stay was too but it would have helped to know how to get there. We were very confused.
