Satisfactory stay with minor issues

comfortable bedfriendly staffunclean roomexpensive drinks
The room was comfortable. I found the beds to be very comfortable also. The location was beneficial, being close to a pub and shops. I appreciated the friendly staff, especially their advice on bus routes.
Unfortunately, the room was not cleaned . I was surprised by the bar prices. A standard lager and a soft drink cost nearly ten pounds. I did not appreciate being asked to move to the drinks-only area when the eating area was empty.
