underwhelming stay

acceptable locationchemical smellcostly parking
the location was acceptable, close to attractions.
The room smelled strongly of chemicals and old carpet, it gave me a headache. parking was a 5-minute walk and costly. I paid £20 daily! i also returned to find unflushed urine in the toilet, i found that disgusting.

i stayed in a twin room and i found the beds very comfortable. the bathroom fixtures looked modern and the water pressure was excellent. the staff members i interacted with were friendly and eager to help with advice.
the tv in my room was positioned to the side, which i found a bit odd. i noticed a musky smell upon entering. the paintwork throughout was a bit tired.
