missing blindfaulty plugs

The bathroom lacked a blind or curtain, so the car park was visible through the frosted window. plugs in the room wouldn't stay in the socket. They kept popping out. that was super annoying! the smoking area's location next to the bin store, combined with the absence of lighting, wasn't great either.

Acceptable Overnight Stay

electrical socketsgood-sized car parkdirty carpetcar park entrance

The room had plenty of electrical sockets, which I found quite useful. The big fan in the room was also a plus. I appreciated the good-sized car park (parking felt secure).

I found it hard to locate the entrance to the car park because it was not very visible. The carpet in my room was not very clean, and I kept my shoes on. I think some cleaning would improve the rooms.

The staff members present were helpful and polite during check-in. My room was very clean and spacious. It included a massive, comfortable bed, and the ensuite bathroom was modern.

I noticed the shower sealer was broken in my room. I had to crouch to shower, not ideal. Some updating to the decor would be beneficial, in my opinion.
