Absolutely disgusting
Cons:

This was possibly the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in. The bathroom looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for months. I also had to make up a bed even though I’d booked a room for 4.

Pros:

What did i like? Escaping the wife and her insufferable mother in law. This is an excellent liminal space to turn the phone off and pretend to not exist. Plenty of food options next door. Handy location to road networks, good price at short notice.

Cons:

Its not the Ritz, room exhibited usual wear and tear you would expect, but, its more an observation. Facilities were all fine.
