Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff were great, upgraded room to superior, and wondered why bothered. Only 1 plug socket was available to use so had to choose what to either charge or use. Kettle miles away from socket, fridge balanced on unsteady case rack. Not worth the upgrade. Bathroom not very clean and bedroom dusty. Very dated and building in general very run down. On a positive, staff were friendly and welcoming and bed comfy. Just very basic accommodation
