uneven stay, SOME issues

adequate roomfirm bedcomplicated access

the ROOM met my needs adequately enough.

I FOUND the bed to be excessively firm FOR MY LIKING. the attached pub felt rather unwelcoming. It was clear locals were favored, and gaining access felt overly complicated with the CCTV system.

The room was very clean. It also included all necessary amenities. The manager was very kind and helpful. I especially liked finding fresh milk in the fridge. Yorkshire Tea Bags.

The shower room lacked a window. This resulted in a damp smell that unfortunately spread to the bedroom. I also noticed the slip mat had black mould on its back. I did not use it.
