In desperate need of renovation

I have stayed at some great mecures but this is not one of them. Many parts of this hotel are run down , the carpets look to be from the 80s and it really shows with how clean they are. The swimming pool was OK but the ceiling had holes in it and is in dire need of renovation. There is no aircon and the radiators in the hallway were switched on (it’s 20 degrees late May) the bathroom was OK but the shower curtain was too short and water just drips onto the floor. Curtains were half falling off the rail. The bedding was clean and service desk lady was nice. Ok for a pit stop but nothing else

Very clean, staff were very polite. Only one thing I think is the shower which was over the bath did not have a handrail or rubber mat! My wife & I are in our late seventies and thought without these items it was quite slippery & dangerous! Other than that very pleased.

Won’t be back

Food was terrible, server ask me if I wanted some or anything else and then returned with my request but still had the cheek to charge me a 10% service charge. My room had stains all over carpet and some moth looking things flying round the bathroom. I won’t be returning!

Horrible

Had booked for several nights. Got there late on Sunday. The room smelt of stale smoke and made me feel sick. The bed i slept in made me itch like crazy. I ended up putting on more clothes so i had less skin in contact with the bed. And then the shower was cold in the morning, and i mean freezing cold. They changed my room for the rest which was marginally better. Will never return.
