Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The booking site said breakfast included, it was not. The booking site was misleading with respect to room facilities, no bathroom, and tea and coffee was in separate area. Bed was small and uncomfortable, with springs looking into us. Extremely noisy ( very loud music and patrons)until 1am, then for next hour till around 2am, drunken patrons in the street outside our window were extremely loud, yelling. Only 2 of the staff were friendly, most were scowling and barely acknowledged any greeting. Overpriced for extremely basic accommodation. When I complained about the false advertising, I was told that it was the fault of WOTIF.
