Average
It was okay, quite dated & the lower ground has a funny cheesy smell to it, I guess that is because there is no windows for ventilation. It was a fair price for 1 night split between 2 people, but the room was a bit dated.

On arrival the reception area looked welcoming as were the staff,unfortunately that was as good as it got. Upon entering the room the smell of urine from the bathroom was overwhelming, the room itself wasn’t at all what I expected for the money paid,dirty mirrors,headboard and side units all needed cleaned. Black mould around handrail in bathroom. So first 30 mins of our stay was spent wiping everything down. The mould was easily removed with toilet wipes. Couldn’t comment on food as after seeing the room I didn’t want to eat there. In need of serious updating inside and out.
