good locationstained bedsheetspoor insulation
The location was good for accessing the town center. It was about a fifteen minute walk.
The room I had was quite run down. The bedsheets had some stain marks on them (i was expecting better). The carpets definitely looked like they had seen better days and the noise insulation was not good. I could hear every flush and door slam from adjoining rooms.

The location near the cricket ground was useful. Free parking at the hotel saved money. My spacious room had a big bath and i liked it. Nice toiletries was provided in bathroom.
The room only had two tea bags, so there was no tea in the morning.
