Disappointed

We booked this hotel for 2 nights Fri- sun we had stayed here a few years ago and found it pleasant at the time,this time however within a few hours I was looking online for another hotel, we checked in at the appointed time of 3pm and found the room absolutely freezing the heating wasn’t on so I went and asked reception about the heating to be told they don’t heat the back part of the house in the week and gave us a fan heater they said it comes on around 6.30 it’s almost the end of October and it’s cold there was a lot of mould in the shower basin and no where really to store our toiletries there were 2 small shelves beside the beds but it couldn’t hold everything so we had to use our suitcase as a shelf again with the bathroom no where for toiletries so they stayed in our toiletries bag on the floor maybe I’m being picky but I didn’t fancy leaving them on the toilet basin the toilet and seat were very loose and shifted when sitting down the blinds didn’t come all the way so there was a gap at the side which let in too much light and mostly the shower was scalding hot it went from 38-30 but still we spent a good 15 minutes trying to regulate it to cooler but it didn’t happen there was only a sign warning us of the sink hot water it couldn’t be used, the heating still not on at 8pm still cold room I went back to ask to be told that she would leave a note she also said people always complain they’re cold but they still leave doors open as front door open

The hotel is pretty tired rooms are basic but were clean, staff were helpful with all the broken things. Breakfast was just continental not like the english breakfast on the pictures. Location is fairly good. Wont be booking again though, for the price you can get premier inn if you book in advance but this was last minute and they were all full.
