Disappointing Stay at the Alma Inn, Colne — Not Quite the 4-Star Experience
After a long day of travel, we arrived at the Alma Inn with expectations of a luxurious and comfortable stay, buoyed by its website description and AA 4-star rating. Sadly, what we encountered in Room 2 was far from what was promised.
Pros:
· Early Wake-Up Call — for early risers only (see below for the why).
Cons:
· Dated and Worn Interior: The room was small, in need of decorating, with dirty carpets and visible stains on the walls.
· Cramped Bed: At 6'3", my feet dangled well off the edge of the very small double bed. Thankfully, I like my wife — we had to stay especially close that night.
· Tiny Shower Cubicle: One of the smallest I’ve ever squeezed into — not exactly spa-like comfort.
· Musty Atmosphere: The room had a damp, stale feel, possibly due to an ineffective bathroom extractor fan.
· Persistent Noise: Situated above the kitchen, the drone of the kitchen extractor outside our wall (peaking at 67dB) didn’t stop until 21:30. Then, as a Friday-to-Saturday guest, our “lie-in” ended abruptly at 08:07 when the extractor roared back to life. Frankly, I thought we were staying next to an aircraft engine test bay.
Due to limited text insufficient space to provide how shockingly bad the food in the restaurant was and our experience but further details can be provided upon request.
