I strongly advise against it
it was my first business trip to the UK. I have stayed in several places and hotels but this one was the worst. Dirty, dark, even something as simple as internet doesn't work. Carpet in the bathroom by the toilet is an exaggeration and it's scary to think about what's on it - I think that the UV light would make it visible. If you have arachnophobia, think twice before staying there. Surroundings around the hotel and parking neglected. The hotel staff should know that the floors are also wet wiped, not only vacuumed, but it's more difficult work, that's why no one does it and the floor is sticky. I strongly advise against staying. Such places should be eliminated from the market.
