Basic, very basic.
This is a very basic hotel, which needs improvement all over. Very dated and workmanship is poor. Old bedside cabinet is still present as it is protruding from the wall. Clearly workman were lazy or money was saved. Chairs in room covered with biro. No ensuite facilites which is just strange in this day and age. Noisy hallway in the mornings.

Almost great
Only 1 high chair in the hotel which was full and many children, fire alarm went off (not a test) and kitchen staff left the building but only 1 receptionist trying to evacuate everyone didn’t work, whole restaurant remained full of people eating breakfast. And bath had hairs in still from previous occupants.

Will. It be staying here again
Apart from the bed which was very comfortable, I am afraid to say that the toilet seat was the wrong one for the toilet and kept moving. There was no tea facilities in the room which is unheard of. The breakfast was terrible, they had no milk for my corn flakes, the toaster was not working and the receptionist who met us in arrival was just unhelpful and uninterested in his role it would appear.
