“I read previous reviews just couple of days before we left and the hotel sounded awful, but too late for us to cancel. We were hopeful but unfortunately was worst hotel we’ve ever stayed in, in fact we didn’t stay!! On entering was very dark and untidy, no reception, checked in with gentleman at the bar who was very unwelcoming, especially when we asked about onsite parking (which was advertised) there is none, only street parking and being Bank Holiday and popular place the nearest we could……
