The bad aspects of the room.
The shower went really hot then really cold. The AC didn't work very well. The toilet leaks really badly. The fridge froze all the food. Some of the towels had stains. The lighting in the room is very dull. The wifi is very bad.

The room maintenance and management was very poor.There were several matters needing to be fixed. The cupboard door of the refrigerator was off one hinge resulting in the door not closing fully and difficulty in opening and getting to the fridge, a light was not working, no tea towel was provided, all drawers stuck and the wardrobe doors were not sliding properly. I reported the first fault listed as soon as I checked in. No one came to repair it. A shame, as all other facets of my stay were OK. Neverthelss,I would not stay there again

Good location, spacious rooms. Our room was a bit old and tired (there were patches on the wall that hadn’t been painted over) but clean overall. I booked and paid for the room but then my partner was checking in for us, I should have rung and checked if that was ok as there were some issues on check in for him. Would be happy to stay at this hotel again

Property is clean, staff friendly. Bed was comfy, door to balcony, ( not private) Hotel is dated and could do with a face lift, pool was closed. No restaurant or bar on site, but details of hotel a few dorms down with restaurant, although we did not use. Over all not bad value for money, good location.

Good stay. Check-in was quick and good service. Decent size room. Bed was very comfy. Room was good for its age. Bathroom slightly on the smaller size although plenty of room in the large format shower. Again good for its age. Some mould forming in the bathroom above the mirror but nothing to worry as didnt affect me. Very reasonably priced stay.
