Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre

Selected this hotel as it looked interesting and cool. Located within walking distance to the main market square/shops. Room was spacious, however did not have a working air-conditioner (suspect this has not been working for a while as the remote was missing) so beware if staying there during warm weather. Ceiling fan also not working, so the room was very uncomfortably hot and stuffy to sleep in. Staff brought 2 desk fans to plug in, but this just noisily blew hot air around. Windows can be opened, but will not stay open itself unless you jam something in there. Not very professional. Plus as the hotel faces the street and is nearby to church, it is very noisy to leave window open overnight. Bathroom looks nice, but not practical to use. The basin taps are on the side and hard to adjust seperate hot/cold taps without spraying water all over yourself and the floor. The kettle supplied in room doesn't even fit properly under the tap, so it's difficult to fill it up to use. Did anyone even check the usability of the room before buying kettle?? As a nice touch, they supply complimentary mini bottles of shampoo and wash to use. Mini fridge supplied, but very old and did not keep items cool. Bedside light is fluorescent, which is very old school and not pleasant for eyes late at night. Bed was OK, nothing special. Would not stay here again in future, as there are much better hotels nearby for the same (or lower) price
