Disappointing and uncomfortable stay. I recently stayed here for two nights due to its proximity to my business location, but I regret the decision. From start to finish, the experience was subpar. The Service & Atmosphere The staff were incredibly unhelpful and bordering on rude. There was no welcome upon arrival—just stern looks and dull, unwelcoming faces. It felt like every request was an inconvenience to them. Room Conditions & Comfort • The Cold: The heater in the room was broken while the outside temperature was below zero. After complaining and waiting for over an hour, we were given a small electric heater that was nowhere near enough to warm the space. My kids were sneezing from the cold, and the staff seemed completely indifferent. • Maintenance: The TV didn't work, and the room phone connection was broken, making it impossible to communicate with the front desk without walking down. • The Bed: Very uncomfortable. To make matters worse, there was only one charging port located by the TV—nothing near the bedside. • Noise: The windows offered poor insulation; we could hear everything from the main road. Cleanliness & Housekeeping While the initial cleanliness was "okay," housekeeping was non-existent. We put the "Please Clean" tag out and requested service at reception twice. Our room was never cleaned once during the entire two-night stay. Additional Details • Breakfast: Very basic and uninspired. • Parking: Be prepared to pay £16 per day. • Location: The only savin

The reception staff were very curteous and helpful. The cleaners didn't empty my bin nor properly tuck in the bottom sheet on the bed. The room was comfortable and clean. The TV's are set to only reach a very low volume. The worst thing was the noise from the plumbing from other people's rooms.
