When we got there the manager said we owed money in which i had to show my reciept paid in full the hotel said full english breakfast all was there 2 cartons of opened juice cereals tea coffee toast very bad considering theyre advertising breakfast the windows you couldnt lock. The room smelt damp The light in the bathroom kept flicking on and off everything was dusty in the room and blood stain on the wall The grove arms isnt telling the truth the steps into the back building are a death trap decking steps the car park not enough security and lighting plus the central heating was turned off when i think weve paid 100 pounds to stay there we should be entitled to put it on when we want to No management on site to speak to during the night very very dissapointed with the room and Expierence there claim AA **** which isnt the case i would like a refund as it was a poor establishment was not worth the money we paid expedia clearly havent checked the hotel out never a 4 *

I was really not impressed with the stay we experienced for the money I didn’t get the correct room as I had a family room I paid for and when I got their they had two single beds when I paid for three people not 2 i expressed concern with the staff member they gave us a fold out bed with no quilt so this morning have woke up frozen and disgusted with this and would like a rrfund
