"Convenient but would probably not return"

5.0

Walking distance for where we needed to be and had their own parking

Everything was a bit outdated which made it feel dirty, there was only - cupboard door which was broken and just left half way between both. Extra blankets just shoved in a plastic bag left in cupboard on the floor, pillows weren’t all the same and probably need to be replaced (felt like I had rolled all my jeans up and shoved them in a pillowcase) there was also a massive lump in the bed. You can tell if things haven’t been used they aren’t replaced to keep fresh eg make up wipes so old they have dried out. Tiny little ledge for a vanity in bathroom which was also above the toilet (little bit unhygienic) and just over filled with glasses, soaps face cloths etc so there wasn’t much room to have a toilet bag out or be able to have your things out when getting ready.
