Cheap, cheerful but not a good night sleep due to hard bed and noisy/busy A road
Pros:

Cheap, clean rooms and clean overall around the hotel. Breakfast was tasty and good value. Happy I could bring my dog. Staff helpful especially the lady in restaurant at breakfast.

Cons:

Bed was SO hard and felt like a mattress of straw. Awful. Also the duvet itself had old blood stains / pee on under the duvet cover. Not a good night sleep due to hard bed and my room overlooking the ‘A’ road so was continuously noisy.
Vegan croissants were not freshly made that morning, as were hard as bullets when brought out, but clearly pre cooked, frozen and re cooked / reheated that morning when requested. So avoid those. Scrambled tofu instead of bacon for us vegans please as we were still charged the same even with less options so please provide alternatives. Or charge less for the vegan breakfast. Also I had to go to reception that evening and ask for bath towels as the only towel in the room on arrival on bathroom shelf was 1 hand towel! See photo. 2 of us in the room and there were no bath sheets.
