Our stay was very nice, the building itself is old syle, very 70s, but is very clean and nicely presented, the only fault is that the front desk is from my experience is usually left empty, we waited 10 minutes to be seen to check in and nearly the same to check out, but the staff are very nice

One image says it all. Avoid at all costs. The hotel smells of mould/ damp as you walk in. I was told I had the best room. Hotel think it’s completely acceptable to let a child sleep next to a mouldy bed. Bed linen dirty. Walked out of the hotel, was told I could get a refund only for them to retract once I disputed with hotels.com
