Not the best not the worst.
Pros:

The lady was lovely and let us stay over last minute

Cons:

Shared toilets , people weren’t hygienic , the shower was disgusting, first time we went to use toilet it was full of poo not flushed. Light didn’t work in one of the toilets , our tv in our room didn’t work , the radiator didn’t work so had a little plug in one but it stunk like gas. The room smelt chemically which wasn’t great as I’m heavily pregnant. Mould on the roof. Microwave was dirty. Could just hear people having sex walls are paper thin. Crackheads outside the hotel

Needs a very big update and clean
Pros:

The beds were clean

Cons:

The area was not nice.
The room was outdated.
There was holes in the walls.
There was dirt on ceiling and skirting boards.
Only cold tap worked in room.
Stated own bathroom but was communal.
Toilet clean however window was only hanging on by bottom latch, shower very dark light didn’t work.
Front door left open overnight no barrel in the @9ck, only a very old wooden and glass internal door that was locked, not very secure
No working heating in the room, freezing when we went in had to wait for small oil radiator to work

Dirty
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The room we stayed in hadn't even been cleaned there was rubbish all down the side of the bed and the bin hadn't been emptied. When we first walked into the property it didn't smell nice, could smell cannabis and just smelt and looked dirty. We had to use a shared toilet which was filthy and was told the sink was currently blocked but someone was coming to fix it which didn't happen. We got woke up a few times in the night one of them being the manager arguing with someone and then another time the fire alarm going off. Definitely won't be staying here again the whole property was in need of a good clean. Wish I had taken pictures to warn other people of what to expect
