As expected for an overnight stay. Paid Expedia rate for standard room so wasn’t expecting great, not was it. Very small dark room with small window overlooking back and extractor fans which were noisy. Bed - a double- not that comfy nor were pillows. Breakfast was ok. Parking £8. Hotel next to Spoons pub so a bit of late night noise. Wouldn’t make me rush to return to ve fair but it was ok.
