If I could give zero stars I would. Bedding stained & smelled dirty & unwashed. Shower inexplicably ran scalding hot then icy cold. Paper thin walls where you can hear E.V.E.R.T.H.I.N.G. You get what you pay for and this is a lesson learned for us. A definite never again.

A little tired
I think we were the only ones who were staying there, after we checked in at 4pm they closed reception, and we never saw anyone again all evening or night (it was kind of spooky!). The room was ok, a few cobwebs and shower a bit tired, but ok for the price.

No staff present after 4 pm
“Hotel” left without staff present. No security. Front door left wide open. Fire alarm rang and woke us. It was pouring rain outside & we were to evacuate. Tried to find some contact information but finally called the fire department. Did not sleep well and staff that arrived on scene had no answers in morning. No restitution of any kind was offered for a sleepless night.

The owners appear to be new to the business. The lady was friendly and helpful. The laundry area worked well but could use a cleaning. The shower door leaked water onto the floor which could cause problems over time. A few more dishes would have been useful ie bowls for cereal.

The property is new and clean. The service is excellent. There looks like a future space for a restaurant . That will help because town centre is a drive away. Therefore they need to look at kitchenette facilities in rooms. You need more than a kettle. Please supply a toaster and microwave! You have the room to do so. Your generous size kitchen sink needs hot water! Improve your kitchen and you will be top stars.

Property was OK, they were giving it a spruce up, room was clean,2 rubbish bins which is a first, shower was great, could have been awesome if the in-house restaurant was up and running, looked a great facility, but also understand about paying extra staff to man it.
