I was transferred to this hospital from another with severe abdomen pain, I was told to wait in waiting room whilst they found me a bed, 1 hour later I was still in waiting room, I told nurse I needed to lay down as I was in a lot of pain, nurse put me in a side room, when my family arrived nobody knew where I was, the system said I was still in the waiting room. The toilets were dirty, blood stains all up the toilet doors and the locks didn't work, they looked like public toilets, absolutely filthy, not what you expect in an NHS hospital. I was in the side room for 4 hours and 15 minutes, after I was discharged, within 30 seconds a nurse came in and told me I had to leave as they had another patient who needed the bed, I respect that, but I was in a lot of pain, and had been given morphine so I was extremely sleepy and unstable and I was being rushed out of the hospital, I wouldn't recommend this A&E
