Leisure centre was decent for our toddler.

This felt like the hotel from The Shining, except with a staff who matched the tired, dated, dusty and melancholic vibe. Slow, depressing service, dusty room (we had to put the bed throw in the corner because when our toddler jumped on it, a literal thick cloud of dust was ejected into the air). Just feels like it's waiting to run out of money and shut down. Insane they charge such high prices for such a dilapidated horrible place.
