Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Expedia did let us down this time as nothing about this accommodation was matched with the description on their website from the location; facilities in the room to the continental breakfast. The bathroom is tiny; no hot water and the shower didn’t work. The so called“continental breakfast” is the worst as you have no choice of anything. The cook brought to us a bowl of corn flakes with hot milk, a plate with a frankfurter sausage, some crumbled egg and a spoonful bake bean, 2 slices of bread (no butter-no toaster) and a cup of tea. The housekeeper and also breakfast server didn’t do her job properly( not clean the room at all during 3 days we were there); extremely poor quality food for breakfast and serious lack of customer care. Overall, unpleasant stay and I would not recommend this to anyone.
