There were no power points near the bed. That is a problem for someone who uses a sleep apnoea machine. Also the power point where the tv was plugged made some fizzing noises. Didn’t sound safe

All except service was fine. Empty coke bottle and tea bags left in the room. Toilet paper not replaced, used cups left dirty and in one opportunity I made the bed to my liking and it was remade to a very strange way while eaten breakfast biscuits were not replaced
