Needs an upgrade

Hotel room was old and tired, shower and toilet is basic along with the sink being in the room rather than in the bathroom. Bed was ok not great, overall not worth the money paid for the night. I have stayed in much better hotels for less, this was a last minute necessity. Staff were friendly, credit where due!

Very large and comfortable room. The worst breakfast I’ve eaten in a very long time. All food was rock hard the hash brown disintegrated upon putting fork in could have lost teeth on the bacon, I asked for a fresh egg as those in the dish were rock hard. The pastries were incredibly unfresh and very oily. The canned fruit was nice!

A superior room which sadly was on the ground floor with the parking area directly outside the window. Both cars started up and revved engines very early in order to warm their vehicles up before driving off, waking me up. The room was very cold so had to ask for an independent heater. Very disappointing and uncomfortable. I did ask for another room but none were available!

The room's decor seemed a little dated, and the climate control system wasn't working perfectly; however, a heater was provided. The staff were extremely kind and professional.
