Verified traveller

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We asked for a double room but was given a twin, staff were no where to be seen when we tried to question. Room was cold, and smelled musty, almost damp. The room and the bathroom need to be updated, facilities were poor. You have to pay £10 to park your car which is unreasonable considering. Wouldn’t recommend.
