Shame could be lovely

Disappointing stay, both rooms not clean dust so thick could write in it. Room not cleaned entirely before arrival other peoples rubbish in bin and throw on bed had tissue stuck on it and tissues on the floor under desk. Tried to order avocado on toast as per menu not available on 2 days we were there. Inconsistent cooking one day spinach seasoned next day wet no seasoning running water into rest of food inedible. Breakfast items either over or under cooked on same plate. Poor quality ingredients. Generally hotel needs renovation doors all scratched on room marks on walls sold as renovated master room yet showing signs of needing repainting and holes in the carpet. Great shower and bathroom Good location with parking. Needs better check in area. Not value over priced for condition.
