Acceptable Stay but Shower Issue

The bedding was clean and comfy. The room also provided an iron and board along with tea and coffee.
The water pressure in the shower was minimal. The plug was missing from the sink. I was looking into a dark drain while brushing my teeth.

dirty spots
Imagine doing that with luggage. Breakfast ran out early one morning because staff provided incorrect times, how thoughtful. The bathroom looked clean, but I found dirty spots on the tea tray. Also sticky beer on the fridge. footprints on the windowsill. It looked like someone had a party, and the cleaning was not good enough.

Fantastic Stay Near Everything!
spacious roomcomfortable bedamazing locationparking cost
My Standard Twin Room was super spacious! The beds and pillows felt comfortable after a long day. The location of this hotel is amazing. It's a short walk to all the cool shops, restaurants, and bars. I loved how close everything was.
I then had to pay seven pounds, and it wasn't ideal.

The breakfast service was very good and provided a lot of food for everyone. The dining area was clean, and staff ensured all items were well-stocked during the service hours. I think all guests would enjoy it.
