There is a significant mismatch between the social media photos of this property and rooms and the reality. The bathroom in our room Was particularly poor- mould around the bath, rust all over the bin, marks on the door and generally a very low standard. Marks on the walls in the bedroom, random hangers in the wardrobe…felt very budget and yet, far from a budget price. The outside eating areas are overlooking the car parks and by a very noisy road. Really disappointing. The staff however were lovely and extremely helpful.
