The hotel was tired and showed it. I had a courtyard view room - with two overwashed single blankets in cupboard if needed extra one with a piece cut out of bottom. Bottom sheet kept pulling out - not enough tuck in and only one bedside lamp rather than two. I expected better.

The rooms are very dated and ugly but very clean. The bathroom was excellent - large and very clean. The bottom sheet of the bed was too small and came untucked so bunched up underneath me which was not great. Just get bigger sheets. Lastly the sound proofing was poor. There was no way you could sleep in as every door closing reverberated into the room. I didn’t expect more than what it was but if the sheets could at least be replaced it would be a start.
