Needs maintenance and service checkup

Needs maintenance and kitchen sink tap was incorrectly labelled so hot water came out of the cold tap - extremely dangerous! No hair dryer, no sharp knife but cockroaches in the bedroom and tv remote was randomly programmed so on/off was mute!

Disliked: Amenities
The room was okay. The shower was really low on the wall, so doesn’t help if you are tall like me. There was no fan in the bathroom so everything fogged up. The toilet cistern was dripping all night. TV reception was pixelated on all channels. The heater had a broken stand.

Run down

The room was old and run down. The curtains were falling off the railings. The entire room wasn’t a great place to stay, I will never return and if I could have left immediately upon entering the room I would have done so. NOT value for money at all!

The property seemed nearly empty, yet we were given a room in a cold dark corner, next to the skip. The condensation was impressive. There was not enough cutlery for the number of people the room catered for. As at 6 am, the looked door popped open of its own accord! Unsafe. Stay somewhere else.

Ok for price, just needs a few things.

Office is not manned, Need to call and then they get someone to come see you. The unit we stayed in was tidy, but quite old. The stair and doors squeaked quite loudly. No Cutting board, only one small dull cutting knife, no vegetable peeler, no grater. Had free washing machine, and there was some washing powder there. One dryer did not work (discovered this when i returned 40 mins later. the other one did work. Had issue using Netflix on the TV the 3rd and 4th night (own account), but had worked first couple nights.

Although the rooms were large enough and clean. It was scruffy with some peeling paint and edges of the wall paper, the bath tub had no taps and was unusable, the shower door did not close fully and no holders for soaps and shampoos and had to use the floor. doors either were very tight to close and open or blew open with the wind. I believe the accommodation is over priced for what you get.
