underwhelming stay overall
filthy kettle black mould
I found some issues . The kettle was filthy, and i noticed a lot of hair in the bath plug. black mould surrounded the doors, which wasn't pleasant. an electric radiator kept the room warm, though it struggled. the food was overpriced in my opinion.
