This was obviously once a stunning hotel. it is now showing signs of age but is far from shabby. Room was comfortable but noisy with the window open. Shower was quite powerful but shower curtain sticking to you when showering is really annoying! Need curved curtain rails! Didn't eat there as breakfast finished at 9.30am. Didn't drink there as bar was closed at 10pm when we got back from our event. I'd stay again but wouldn't look forward to it.

When we arrived at the hotel we were greeted by other members of the public causing a lot of disruption in the reception areas, making threats to staff and the hotel itself. Threatening to smash the place up etc. this went on for quite some time causing a hold up at check in and making me and my partner and everyone else around us feel very unsafe and uncomfortable. The staff just let this altercation carry on with no security or police been called. It was handled very unprofessionally and left us feeling uneasy about our stay. When we got in to the room there was an unbearable smell of Canabis, the light switches were grubby and the shower was leaking all over the bathroom every time it was turned on. There was lots of rust in the bathroom. The room felt stuffy and dark. We didn’t spend much of our stay in the room as we simply just didn’t feel comfortable.

The room we had was tiny, with no window, and the stench of stale cigarette smoke was so overpowering it made us feel quite sick. Lots of fixtures and fittings were broken too including the wardrobe. I would not stay at this hotel again.
