Windows need refitting
Hotel is quirky and down stairs really good. But massively noisy in the rooms. (417). Admittedly I was next to the road but I think the fact that the window didn’t fit the frame was letting the freezing air in along with persistent road noise. It was quite draining. I have attached a picture of the window seal and gap in it. It was -3 last night also.
