Room had not been clean properly, found beer bottles on the balcony. Jaffa on the floor and toy by curtains that were obviously left by other guests. Bathmat for bath tub was dirty and unclean. The tap in the tub dripped all night.

Good position near city center but the property was very tired. No restaurant and the room service meals were similar to meals bought from a supermarket freezer. Would not stay there again.

The Hotel and rooms are run down and uninviting. Peeling wallpaper, chipped paint, dated interior. The walls are paper thin so we were kept awake by our neighbor coughing, urinating and snoring throughout the entire night. Then at 8am sharp, construction began above our ceiling. Hammering, sanding and sawing. This was the last straw in a hellish stay. We won't be back or recommending anyone to stay here.

We didnt like the very tight car parking. And the slippery slope drive way going down to the city. Theres water running down it. And its constantly wet. Very dangerous when frosty. But loved the stay in the complex. And will come back.
