What people say

Staff were nice. Sorry, nothing. Free Parking. Found the room to be a bit musty spelling and couldn't open the window enough for fresh air and to cool the room. Shower cubicle was too small. The shower head was dirty. There was masses of mildew around shower base. No fans provided in room. Sink too small. Room was dirty, cups cracked and chipped. Telly too small. Dark, light bulbs not working. Additional charges for breakfast, use of credit card, which differed from advertisement. Internet wifi did not work. Staff could not care less. Took money upfront. Walls too thin - heard next door antics late at night. Towels brown....
