breakfast was good and staff were lovely but the buildings for the accommodation were very run down and I didn't feel safe going around the back of the block to the door (as a woman on her own) TV was broken/ channels wouldn't load. Shower was lovely and warm and bathroom clean but it did feel a bit like an army barracks
