The room was ok for short stays.
Cons:

It was difficult to get in after 10pm I was given a code with nowhere to enter it. Didn’t have a cleaner come in the 3 nights I was there. When I left nobody at the reception desk to say goodbye and ask if I enjoyed the stay.

Unclean middle of council estate
Pros:

Not much. It had a roof.

Cons:

Booked based on the photos but the room was at least half the size in reality. It was extremely dusty—like properly dusty—and covered in spider webs, which along with clean sheets being laid over old dirty box springs made it actually and feel very unclean. There was also a TV but no remote, so it was basically useless. It’s also positioned within a council estate, which was quite noisy during the stay. Overall pretty disappointing.
Forget the old Tudor thing. You won't notice it through the poor quality overall.
In addition, they will tell you that there is parking BUT suggest it's free, it's not. It's recently had a hike up from £5 to £10 and you're only advised you have to pay on checking in.

RoomsThe state of the room was particularly poor—the level of dust was immediately noticeable, not just in corners but across surfaces, making it feel like it hadn’t been properly cleaned in quite some time. There were visible cobwebs in multiple areas, including around the ceiling and behind furniture, which only added to the sense of neglect. The bathroom was no better, with mould clearly visible, which is completely unacceptable from a hygiene standpoint. The bed situation was also concerning—while there were fresh sheets, they appeared to have been placed directly over a dirty box spring, which didn’t feel clean or properly maintained. On top of that, while there was a TV in the room, there was no remote provided, rendering it effectively unusable and just adding to the overall frustration with the lack of basic attention to detail.

A decent budget option but the single room I had was too small!
Pros:

The manager / man running the hotel was very pleasant.

Cons:

The description says, 'small single room' and they are not kidding! The single room was very small! Only place to sit was on the bed. I don't think I'd get the single room again.

Cheap no frills night stay before airport flight.
Pros:

Location, price

Cons:

Rooms too hot. Building a bit tired, needs a refresh. Beds a bit soft. Initially insisted on taking a photo of my driving licence, I refused under GDPR.
