i noticed hairs in the bath, which makes me question the overall cleanliness. i'm not sure if i want to know what lurks behind the curtains or under the radiator... it's a bit off-putting.

The hotel is next to the railway station , which was very convenient. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially with directions. The breakfast offered an excellent choice of options , so I could easily find something I liked.
My room's window was covered in mould , which was unpleasant. The toilet did not flush properly , and this caused inconvenience. The bath also had some bad stains.
