Nothing really - would avoid next time for sure
Pros:

Not much, appreciate this was low cost but difficult to acknowledge this as a hotel - more a guest house.

Cons:

Wash hand basin loose
Shower head loose
Carpets worn and dirty
Poor decorative condition
Could hear plumbing all night
Felt like a 70’s guest house

Warm and friendly accommodation.
Pros:

Excellent communications with staff throughout, who were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and warm, with a very comfortable bed and powerful shower. Breakfast was well presented and it was nice to be given choices.
