average stay with some notable issues

musty smell dim lighting

the room had a musty smell and the carpet had some noticeable stains. i also found that the bathroom lighting was quite dim making it difficult to see well. the bed, while okay, wasn't particularly comfortable, one side felt slightly lower than the other. these issues detracted from what could have been a better experience.

an okay stay

central location comfortable bed free car park tired hotel shrivelled food torn curtain

The hotel had a good location near the center. it was about fourteen minutes walking distance. i appreciate the car park. It was reasonably sized and free. the bed in my room was very comfortable too.

The hotel felt quite tired. a coffee stained heater was left in my room. my colleague's room had a torn net curtain. the breakfast was poor. The hot food looked shriveled.

convenient stay

great value polite staff excellent beers swift request

the room was great value. the staff were very polite. the bar served excellent beers. all requests were swiftly met. i was well greeted and made very welcome on arrival and given very clear instructions as to how to find the room. it was clear the staff were approachable should there be any issues.

upon entry to my room, there was an odour, i tried airing the room out but had no luck. i ended up using an air freshener to do the job. shower looked dirty with black mould in the corner. carpet was stained.
