dirty floor sewage smell

The food and drink offerings were good.

The room could have been cleaner. The floor seemed like it hadn't been cleaned. The bathroom also had A smell of sewage, unpleasant. Breakfast seemed expensive, costing £17 per adult, I think.

I appreciated the iron with ironing board in the room. The hair dryer worked well. The room also had a fan. I used the fridge. It kept my drinks cold.

The breakfast was not worth the price charged.
