Booked three rooms after returning late to the airport. One room had water running through the ceiling, through a light fitting. Another room had a bathroom that hadn't been cleaned with a toilet that didn't flush. Really awful. Have never seen anything like it. Please don't stay here

The room was much smaller than the images shown and had issues such as the bathroom door wouldn't shut, the toilet seat was split, the shower temperature was erratic, there was a number of holes in tiles that had just been filled as examples. The replenishment at breakfast was poor with next to no interaction with any staff.
