Satisfactory Stay

The room was a good size I appreciated the inclusion of both tea and coffee facilities I also found the provided toiletries to be of good quality. Breakfast was well-prepared and diverse there was a good selection of options. The lounge area offered a relaxing space to unwind in the evenings.
The gym equipment appears somewhat dated.

the breakfast choice was good.
The car park entrance looked rundown with graffiti everywhere, giving a poor first impression. the hotel felt dated. It was like stepping back into the 80s. the bathroom floor was filthy. The bath mat had a black side.
