Very scrappy entrance and needs updating. Staff brought us name brand alcoholic drinks without the bottles - I asked to see mine. They brought out the can and it was a Chinese cold drink. This seems like something shady going on

Pavilion was a last minute choice needed for a stopover. Chosen as the least expensive option. This hotel was adequate as a place to sleep the central internal courtyard is attractive especially under evening lights Restaurant and bar appeared inviting. However the building and room doors look like something from a prison scene. The room furniture is worn with worn and damaged paintwork. Not at attractive! Has an unsecured car park.

All quite good really, and very helpful staff. Another handle on the wall would be safer for older people to negotiate when the shower is over a bath. Thank you for a pleasant few days.
