Cons: Room is very small, unsettled, ill equiped.
"Great location, very clean & very cheap for the area"
Pros: Great location, very clean & very cheap for the area.
Cons: Finding hotel is confusing as it is called universal hotel at the entrance & is in what appears to be an office block. the room was very small & we found out that they had put a double bed into what was meant to be a single room - according to the fire safety plan. large tile missing from bath panel & the room obviously had damp problems & was generally a bit tatty.
