Upon arrival check in was slow. A few drunks hanging around the check in areas not the bar. The hallways smelt heavily if smoke. The fire alarm went off during the night I imagine due to the smokers . Shower power was poor

The only thing good was the bedding and towels were very clean and the small bed was comfortable. I’m sure this room should not be used as it has no facilities. Shower cold light in bathroom did not come on it just flashed on and off all the time. Sink was cracked no towel rail no light at the side of the bed. No chair in the room tv had lots of channels missing. We paid little money and got little in return. Definitely wouldn’t return
