Dated and dirty.
Pros:

It was quiet at night and the bed was good. Close to several sites

Cons:

The breakfast was bad for veggies. Tomato and mushroom being a veggie options for fries in 2026 is pretty poor. There was hair in the bath ( that wasn't mine ) and the chairs in the room were dirty. It was 100 quid for the night and given you can get other accomodation for much cheaper - I was very disappointed. The crown plaza was only 20 quid more and honestly - I was rather annoyed at the grubbiness given the cost
