Pros:

The room was very large, but very hot only a small fan

Cons:

We paid £50 extra for a dog damage clause
We stayed one night dog made no mess. We took our own blankets and towels so the dog didn’t even lay on the carpet. We had to get booking.com involved to get our £50 back.
Reception is very rude and unhelpful

Should have brought my earplugs !
Pros:

My stay was cheap and the hotel decore reflected that

Cons:

The Hotel decor was very dated, and there was a smell of damp from the carpet. Beside that I didn’t expect much because it was a cheap last-minute stay. I was mostly disappointed because the walls were very thin, I didn’t get much sleep because the couple next in the room decided they didn’t want to sleep either! There was allot of loud moaning and banging for most of the night! I don’t care if people want to enjoy themselves I just don't want to hear it in my room !
