Greeted by lovely, welcoming staff. Place was fine and quiet - stayed in bottom room. The room had a bit of damage - sat on dining room chair andit was very wobbly - lucky I didn't actually break it and bit of a hole in bathroom door. The outside / roadside of the property just had rubbish that looked as if it had been there for a while but grounds inside were well kept.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Quiet room away from traffic noise. Blinds over kitchen window & vents in bathroom full of dust & need a good clean. Matress on double bed needs replacing felt like i was falling onto the floor A number of cigarette burns in bedroom curtains made the room look untidy (unit was non smoking) No contact wuth management after collecting room key & appeared to be no way to contact them if needed in emergency. Ok as a last resort but would not be my first choice to stay
