4/10 Fair

The accommodation is run down and appears to be understaffed. Basic amenities, such as quality pillows, are lacking, and the food is of poor standard. It is disappointing to see this property listed on Hotels.com. I am also surprised that the associated academic institution is not aware of the low standard of accommodation being provided. This experience has unfortunately put me off supporting local businesses like this. I would recommend staying at a chain hotel in the area instead.
