When I arrived at the hotel, the outside looked rundown and unwelcoming. I waited until almost 2pm and rang the front doorbell, but no one answered, so I went for a short walk and returned to try the doorbell again. There was still no reply when I rang the doorbell, so I rang a phone number posted on the front door and left a message on an answer machine. I went for another short walk and on my return I was greeted by a member of the hotel staff. I was asked to pay the fee for my stay, but when I offered my debit card, was told that the hotel would only accept cash, so I then had to find a cash machine. I was given a choice of 2 rooms. The first was large and had a bathroom along a hallway, but had no tv. The second room was small, but had a tv and a shower room which had no curtains or door, which resulted in light and noise seeping into the bedroom. The hall up to the bedroom and the bedroom itself smelt musty. The mattress seemed thin and was uncomfortable, but I was so tired I did manage to sleep, only to be woken early by the noise of traffic on the road outside and light coming into the bedroom from the shower room window. There was a kettle, cup and tea, coffee etc but no teaspoon. There was no tv remote, so I had to go downstairs to the reception area to ask for one. There was a part toilet roll on the holder, used soap in a container in the shower cubicle and water left in the kettle. Dirty marks and dust on carpet & surfaces.
