Old, poorly maintained. Wasn't convinced that the bed had been changed/made since the previous guest. If it wasn't for the fact that we wanted something cheap and convenient for one night only, then we wouldn't have stayed.

Chose this place because it was pet-friendly but it was inadequate in every way and nothing like how it was advertised. Bedding and towels were well worn and marked. Other residents seemed to be in emergency accommodation. Pool was unusable.

The property had everything I look for but ... I don't use plastic kettles & the cleaners use a product that leaves a mild smell in the unit, akin to a cheap perfume. I can't see why we need to fill our living spaces with the odour of artificial (chemical) scents - bottom line, they are toxic. What is wrong with fresh air ? Luckily it was mild and having windows open mitigated the use of such products.
