Not up to standard and not value for money
Pros:

Location was OK.

Cons:

Few on site parking spaces. One taken up by waste bin. Room did not appear to have been serviced. For three persons there was only one soap tablet, one drinking glass and two cups. Not enough milks and tea bags for three people. There were no towels or toilet paper, but these were supplied by reception after we asked. One of the window blinds was broken, With only these blinds and no curtains the room can not be made dark. The room had a door opening out onto a sort of patio which appeared to be a dumping ground for broken items from the hotel and an old garden pond. This was used as a smoking area by staff so fumes did come into the room. The sinks are extremely small and can only be used for hand washing not for face washing or shaving. The kettle could not be filled from them without spilling water all over the floor. In the shower there was a tray which was filled with old and random used bars of soaps and wrappers.
