The power plug was hanging out of the wall, the carpet was ripped & a trip hazard, there was a tablet under the sink. The stairs to get up to the room was dangerous, carrying a suit case. The stairs were 14 steps straight up, very hard to get two suitcases up the stairs without hurting your self. Road noise also.

Beds were not made the next day. Coffee, tea and sugar were not refilled. Parking was extremely tight. The rug was damp.

The room was quite modern but is on a busy road so alot of night noise (no double glazing), room got light early - no curtain/blind on back door. Bed pillows also not great. Strangely there was no couch in the room - missed that. No place to sit relax / watch tv.
