Disliked: Cleanliness
The room smelled of faeces. We didn’t initially notice as the smell of cheap cleaning product was overwhelming to begin with, but later on it became very obvious. Seems like a fairly big deal to miss by the cleaners.

Staff were friendly and fresh towels and room serviced daily. Small room without natural lighting, badly in need of renovation. Dissapointed with poor facilities especially compared to booking, different room we had, when we stayed last year. Mould in shower, badly leaking spraying shower and hand basin taps, no lighting other than a switch near bathroom door across room from bed ... not even a bedside light; and ancient noisy aircon with no remote. Room certainly was not worth price we paid.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Apart from the age of the premises there appears to be none or very little upkeep of the rooms and property in general. The website advertises a Dining Room. Whe I asked for directions I was advised that they had Not re opened the Dining Room since COVID. After driving all day the last thing I wanted to do was drive to the “cheap pub dow the road” which I was advised to try. Will not return to this place. They really need to change the website as they are falsely advertising.
