I was given a accessibility room, which I unknowingly booked. when i informed the desk staff on arrival i was told it couldnt be changed as i booked through a Third Party (Expedia) The hotel was very empty so i couldnt see the problemI . So the whole stay was in a room which wasnt fit for purpose. I was very unhappy at this.

My only issue that stoped it getting 5 stars was. I was in a disabled room, with an emergency exit sign in the room. God that little green bulb is bright. I had to find a position where i wasn't looking at it.

Room 019. Dark grey dirty looking depressing carpet. Stipled artex on ceiling. No sockets by bedside! Unnecessary curtain covering a wall and falling onto tea making tray. Room stank of some type of cleaning product, made me wheezy, it wouldn't go even with window open as much as they let you. Couldn't sleep because of the constant noise from the aircon/heater unit: there was no remote control provided. Green light above door shining into room all night. Also outside noise from a great big generator box, noisy all night. Needed a decent coffee in the morning but it was luke warm and tasteless, out of a machine, yuk. The juice wasn't proper juice; sugary and worse than Tesco value. No fried or boiled eggs, just tasteless scrambled. Sausages were cheap, like Tesco value. Nice bacon and tomatoes. Heating trays did not keep food hot enough.
