The room seemed clean and tidy but the doors are very clunky. The curtains didn’t fully overlap when closed and let a bit of light in. However worse than that, there was a permanent and continuous humm noise that seemed to be coming from the radiator - but I can’t be sure of that. The humm was very annoying especially when trying to sleep.

We booked two rooms. One was quite dated. The other had been modernised but not to a high standard the furniture was flimsy, we had to pull the bed out to plug in the bedside lights and the tv wasn’t plugged in at the wall, so also had to do that ourselves. The staff were friendly.

Room was clean but dated. Staff all friendly. But we have stayed here twice now and both times there has been a lot of noise in the early hours of the morning. Latest stay the noise was from a domestic which resulted in one person banging on a door for 30/40 minutes at 2.30am
