    This place was awful especially if you travel with kids. Everything is dirty curtains broken and dirty. curtains doesn't close properly, door handle and lock struggling to lock. sink cupboard's wood old and doors broken off. I didn't even touch a cup or plate. I could literally vomit. Shower dirty with previous visitors soap with hair still there in the shower. In the room floor got big holes and i saw some ratex poisen just laying on the floor while I have a toddler, which told me there is also mice. that place was bad i would not recommend it to anyone. The location is so nice such a pity. nothing looks like on the photos i feel for that money its not worth it

    the location is good the place was filthy and run unkempt. there was mold on the walls and what looked like snort all over the walls. The toilet was leaking to the shower floor. The cistern was open because the flushing handle was broken.

    Horrible place ever, receptionist half naked from sleep. Impatient as she made it clear she needs to get back to her sleep, which I never understood why operating late hours if you must sleep instead of working. Everything broken from the doors to cupboards NEVER again

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Absolutely nothing, very run down, tv wasn't working, door handle broken, toilet seat laying on the floor when asked she told me to fix it myself, terrible service and I would never recommend it to anyone, really not worth the money or the stay, infested with cockroaches, a real dump Absolutely everything and very cheeky staff not willing to help, wouldn't recommend it to anyone

    The place is not as it looks in pictures shame I don't wanna lie. But the price is reasonable The place is not as it looks in pictures shame I don't wanna lie. Shower is broken, tv not working cockroaches everywhere. Yes the room was worm and the bed ? not too bad I can say. No sound proof you could hear everything happening from the other room like what the hell!. Receptionist doesn't look like anything like a Receptionist, not welcoming at all.

    I didn't like anything about the place The place is nothing like the pictures online, I was soooooo disappointed. The owners are not maintaining that place. The paint on the wall is peeling, the cupboard and wardrobe did not have doors, the cleaners gave us dirty dustpan and broom. Cockroaches every corner. The wifi was not stable. The curtain in the room was too short for the window , people outside can literally see u dressing up. Cleaners were using pine gel to wash dishes, the same dishes we were using to eat. The beds were not comfortable at all.
