This accommodation worked well enough for us on a busy night with short notice. The staff were nice. The room was very basic but for use as a bedroom, it worked. No mod cons, super basic but warm and dry

Very basic and tired hotel. The en-suite was a small plastic pod which was dated and flimsy. Perhaps the bank holiday inflated the price at £105, but pricing at £60 per night is fairer.

Literally a last resort. Lumpy old bed. Stains on walls. "Breakfast" was a loaf of cheap wheat bread that you can toast slices of, and one type of generic cereal. This is an undercapitalized hotel run to extract marginal costs while putting zero back into the business. Stay away!
