My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the rooms were in need of updating and lacked some essentials like soap and shower gel, they were surprisingly spacious for my larger dog. The views from the back of the hotel left much to be desired, with scaffolding on one side and a pigeon-infested courtyard on the other. However, the rooms seemed less worn than expected.

However, the initial room I was given was quite pokey, overlooking inner roofs with a dripping pipe all night, which wasn't ideal. Overall, it was a decent place to stay with some room for improvement.
