The only decent thing about this place was the breakfast and even then the staff were rude and made us feel uncomfortable by not quite being finished at 9:32. The room was dirty with a layer of dust on everything, the shower mouldy and bad smelling pillows. One of the worst places I've ever stayed in the UK and I definitely will not be returning. Skip this place and play it safe and book a chain hotel
