Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Yes it needs a bit of maintenance and the furniture is looking a bit tired but it's good value for money. Beds are quite soft which suited me. Water pressure is wonderful. All the basics are there, heaters worked really well. One negative is some mold growth on bedroom window and around bath. Wouldn't take much to fix.. Definitely recommend if your budget is a bit compressed!
