While the bed was clean and comfortable, the whole place looks as if it’s stuck in the 70’s. The towels are so threadbare I’d say they’re also from that era. In need of a good updating and general tidy-up, as there was a lot of cobwebs in my room, despite it being full booked last night, would have been worth a go-around and de-cobweb. It’s alright for a 1 night stay if passing through, especially if just one person travelling for work.

The room was very basic and is exceptionally outdated; needs a major upgrade. The mattress on the bed wasn’t great and the bedding was very poor quality. The towels were very thin, no pile at all. It’s one redeeming quality was that it was clean
