The hallway smells like urine. The heater and boiler barely heat up. And details in the guidelines is not updated. We were expecting a breakfast but we didnt receive any. The lady receptionist isnt also nice.

The Hotel is very poorly maintained, has clearly not been cleaned in the last century. I wish I had read the online reviews before booking. The entrance carpet should have been a warning sign, even for this time of year it was filthy. This theme continued up the stairs to the first floor and along the passage to our room.
Things didn't improve once inside the room, the carpet has never been cleaned, stains everywhere, dust and cobwebs in the light fittings above the bed and in the corners of the room.
Fortunately we were only using it for a brief one night stay. My wife went into the toilet

It was worn out and dirty. I dont think the room has ever been hoovered. There were still piles of brick dust on the floor where holes had been drilled. The bed sheets seemed clean and fresh.
