Very little sleep to be had due to the tiredness of the hotel loud terrible creaking floors, banging doors and noise from the family’s that are clearly being housed throughout the hotel.
Room was disgusting, covered in stains, and smelly.
Remnants where someone had deficated in the corner of a stairwell
Breakfast terrible no fresh fruit apart from some old apples in a fish and some tinned compot

Clean comfortable accessible
This was our 2nd stay. Very friendly staff. Made us very welcome and understood wheelchair requirements. Nice room, clean and plenty of room for a wheelchair user. Good accessible bathroom. Breakfast was very good. Hot and plenty of options.
Bed was ok and only a standard double. Room was quite warm and as no option to open the window air conditioning would have been a nice option

Average Hotel
Handy location. Room needs air conditioning or at least a fan as it was far too warm. Was not a pleasant experience to see breakfast being cleared away as we were eating.
