The property was the worst place i have ever stayed it, not clean, facilities were minimal. Everything was patched up, doors had been kicked in and a bodge repair. The fridge was patched up, worked but door was hard to open. No facilities to wash up plates etc The walls and doors were filthy. The whole place needs complete refurbishing from top to bottom. Even the bathroom left a lot to be desired. Even a staff member said the place needed shutting down for poor maintenance, this i totally agree with.
