Cheap but tacky
Pros:

Only paid £72 for 2 nights for me and my son.
Room was a good temperature

Cons:

Beds hard. Could feel the springs. Shower had mildew. No blinking light on the smoke alarm, no mattress protector. Very basic all round.

Comfortable and good value for money
Pros:

Big, clean and comfortable room.

Cons:

Not really a dislike, just an observation. The bathroom could use a silicone touch-up or a few sprays of HG-anti-mould spray to clear some black marks in corners

It was comfortable, although the hotel is very dated and in need of some repairs to
Pros:

The security of the property in the evening, with access to the hotel only via key code

Cons:

I booked room only, but the hotel info suggested there was a restaurant where meals could be purchased, but this was never offered upon arrival and I saw no food service at all. The hotel had a bar, however it was never open.
