Snug
At first glance my room looked perfectly acceptable. Looking a bit further it could have done with a good wipe round the edges.
Comfy bed, nice bedding, clean bathroom. Snug, okay for a one night stay

Staff were friendly, welcoming and informative. The room was well equipped with free tea/coffee, fridge, fan and hairdryer and bed was clean and comfy. Hotel itself could do with a bit of an upgrade but it was still a great place to stay.
