thin mattress late night chair scraping
The pub food was decent, specifically the real chicken breast in the chicken burger.
The mattress was very thin. I barely slept. The scraping of chairs late at night was quite disruptive. Breakfast lacked variety.

mixed feelings about this place
supermarket bread frozen chips
the staff were friendly enough, i guess.
I paid nearly twenty quid for a sandwich and chips. the sandwich was made with supermarket bread, and the chips were frozen. nothing was fresh. It seemed like absolute junk.
