Honestly? I wouldn't pay someone to stay
Pros:

Absolutely nothing. Stay away

Cons:

Used to be a decent place to stay but its massively gone downhill. No staff when you need them. No info on breakfast and for some reason wasn't been served until 9am... room was in a state. No signage to put up so workers didnt walk into my room whilst I was working. My property was touched and moved without permission. Carpet was coming away from the floor. Loads of dirt everywhere. Bed was as hard as the floor. No staff to sign you out in the morning. Coded door from the limited parking didnt work properly and the mechanism was coming away from the door as you try to open it. There's so much more but I'll run out of space to complain. All in all I want my money back!

An adventure: going downstairs to go upstairs. Fun.
Pros:

Breakfast was grrreat (fish soup!), although I didn't know of the arrangements until the young man came in in the morning with the sign.

Cons:

Parking was odd, and awkward with the one-way streets...but it worked out fine.

Hotel is very tired and needs a bit of investment.
Pros:

The location was perfect for my visit.

Cons:

The room needed re-decorating. the wall paper was curling up at the edges, the shower was broken and needed a health warning. it sprayed the ceiling perfectly. The reception was locked up on checkout so couldn’t hand the keys back in person. no call point or box for keys.

Pros:

The double room was quite spacious and equipped with the basics that you’d need for a stay.

Cons:

It would have been a great stay if I hadn’t found bedbugs on the bed just as I was about to go to sleep. Found on the bedsheets and crawling on the headboard. As I wasn’t able to sleep on the bed I tried to sleep on the small sofa that was in the room. Not only was this extremely uncomfortable after a full day of working in the sun but the room was also reading at 29° inside which made it extremely uncomfortable to sleep in. The air was hot and musty. The room needed a deep clean, especially with the carpets.
