Saggy mattress, had to walk to next building for bathmat, heavy loud doors, key card required to enter building and turn on lights so couldn’t leave someone in room if wanted to go out with key. Should have spent a little more to stay somewhere comfortable. But the town is quite lovely!

Good value for money, nothing amazing but if your looking for a place to get your head down that’s clean and cheap with pub grub on the doorstep it’s worth it. Close to all the attractions
