Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Check in was very slow. Employee was having a very long phone conversation and was not paying attention to what he was doing. I was put in a “non-smoking” room. It was anything but. It smelled terrible. The area was very sketchy. I was concerned about my vehicle being there overnight. The good news was that it was poring rain.

The accommodation was basic and the bathroom was grotty, with water stains and broken tiles on the ceiling. The TV had a permanent black line down the middle of the screen and the fridge barely kept anything cold. Most annoying was the heating system breaking in the middle of the night and having no heat in the room. When I reported this the response I got was " thanks for letting us know" , no apology or refund.
