Possibly one of the worst hotels I’ve been to in a long time! Literally terrible from the first minute. Arrived on Tuesday evening and had to call the reception staff who was miserable and had no personality at all. Was like I was inconveniencing him. Got the keys to room one and entered the room and it was like a homeless shelter. Marks on the carpet and walls. Cracks in the wall as well. Loud extractor fan going all day outside the window and painfully dire view of it. The bathroom was awful with a broken toilet seat and a shower which leaked and roasted you to death due to the thermostat not working. Told staff at reception about this and not a care in the world and weren’t interested at all. Nothing was fixed or rectified. Breakfast was pathetic and was the cheapest continental breakfast on the planet with a quarter cup of tea to wash it down. So many other problems but forget it, glad it’s over! Do not, under any circumstances go to this hotel. If you are planning to book this hotel, just go to a local homeless shelter, it will be better than this!

An honest review

When I arrived there wasn’t a member of staff at reception. I had to wait around 5 minutes before someone arrived. I was given the “penthouse suite” (room 12). Straight away when I opened the door an awful odour lingered around the room. The cleaners had obviously noticed the same thing and opened all the windows and turned the desk fan on prior to my arrival. The room itself could do with re-decorating, as there were chips of paint out of the doors, the cream carpets within the room were absolutely disgusting and could do with either a deep clean or ripping up completely. The bathroom had a very dated bath and showering wasn’t an option as they only had the head and no where you could hang up. I didn’t eat within the hotel as everything I’d experienced put me off. On a brighter note parking wasn’t an issue. But I would never stay here again.
