Breakfast service was good but poor services because the online description of the facility that influenced my booking was misleading and did not match the room provided upon my arrival and I had security concerns.

This place was what I could describe as the worst place. They gave my room to someone else and couldn’t get them out and gave me what I could describe as staff quarters no tea coffee I didn’t sleep as I felt unsafe as a lone woman and a member off staff was shouting on her phone most of the night. Keep well away

Only stopped at this place for one night. Couldn't stop for longer. It's very basic and dated. The breakfast is not good and very limited. I felt it was expensive for what it was. It was worth half what I paid.
