Very good

At 3pm no one in reception had to call a number to get someone to come check me in.
Bathroom tiles around bath broken. Tap dripped. Freezer door of fridge and all iced over
We arrived around 5 and was allocated a room wirh only netflix/ youtube but she said if we would like we can have another room ... i said yes please so she gave us a great room NUMBER 25 ... Bed was comftable and lovely and nice quiet ... the chinese restaurant was a lottle pricey but cafe ' just like nans' was awesome for breakfast on weekdays ...
Perfect for our overnight stay. Well equipped with everything we needed and spotlessly clean. Great location, handy to city centre etc. We would definitely stay here again.
Our room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was clean but old. Toilet cistern was leaking.
Only real negative was although plates an cutlery were provided there wasn't a dishcloth or tea towel available to clean used items
Overall it was really good. The only downfall was the height of the bath tub was too high for stepping in & out of.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Absolutely awful stay. Despite saying I was on crutches was given a room with a shower over a bath. Bathroom was mouldy. Kept awake by drunk ppl in the room above mine till 4am. Fire alarm went off at 7 ( or something similar) which was loud enough to just about rock the room. So bad I just left after one night despite being booked in for a two night stay
