Room stank of dampness/musty. No A/C , fridge sitting on floor not working, only one working power point under TV, marks on bedding, ants everywhere, general feeling of being ex-social housing and not been cleaned after. Teach me for not reading reviews before booking.

Scary as! Room had a simple push button lock on the knob of a flimsy door. Had to use a chair, the bed & my bag to ensure no one could get in. Paper thin walls. Cheap but not worth the risk.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This is a very tired property. The photos online are far from a true representation of the room i booked. Windows unable to be closed, ant infested bathroom, stained linen, exposed wiring, damaged furnishings and worn/stained carpet. The fridge sits on a piece of polystyrene on the floor and the oil heater has a block of wood propped under it. The staff onsite were pleasant but the property would benefit from a bulldozer and rebuild. Disappointing would be a word to describe this property.

The hallways and room floor carpet not properly clean to which I came across silverfish and mites. Bathroom essentials not restocked as well as tea, coffee and sugar. Shower rose was damaged and the hot water pressure was to a bare minimum. Sitting chair wobbly and unsafe to sit on it ( repair needed ) and all of these been passed on to the house maids. Overall very disappointed.

The bed was awesome to sleep sleep on with clean white bedding. Toilet seat was loose, shower was fantastic but needs an updating with new clean tiles etc all around and shelf for shampoo's etc. Carpet needs cleaning and kitchen facilities needs attending too. Bigger cups and spoons to stir your tea and tea towels. More milk and tea,coffee. My Television did not work either. But I got a very good sleep.

Thanks for the one night accommodation and upgrade, really appreciative. Admin was courteous and informative with simple and clear instructions. Room was clean, tidy and comfortable. Outside needs maintenance especially side driveway where metal road is. But then it's probably work in progress.

As soon as I got in the room I started sneezing. The carpet is old; needs refurbishing. The carpeted floor going to the swimming pool was uneven, a fall hazard. I got what I paid for; the price was economical. Im glad I only needed an overnight stay. Sorry but I will not recommend this hotel to my friends .

Broken chair in my room, unsafe to sit on. Chipped paintwork and drill holes in the room. Hard to close doors. Hole in the floor under the carpet in the hallway. No electric jug in room. Glad I only had one night there and left early. Man outside my room asking for cigarettes and followed me to reception. Made a hasty departure. Spend extra money and don't stay here. Run down and old.
