We were in town to see the Wolves play. For this reason, the hotel was absolutely perfect. A very short walk to the stadium. However, the hotel was run down and the beds were atrocious. But again, because of the location, it was worth it.

There was no hot water on the first night when we checked in at 9 p.m. The place warmed up quickly, but after a rainy day at CBeebies Land, we couldn’t take a shower. Thankfully, everything worked fine for the next two days.
