Very unpleasant stay …
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Absolutely disgusted that I had to pay £20 to park my vehicle overnight, to then find out in the morning it had been broken in to and some valuables were stolen. To top it off I was given a fairly pleasant room with a bath but it was look not touch scenario as the plug was kidnapped (no where to be seen). The staff were not approachable when I asked regarding the parking as not made clear on the booking site but it had been updated 3 months ago after my first stay here.
