A Comfortable family stay

Overall, we had a pleasant stay, with comfy, clean beds and a decent bathroom. However, the rooms require replacement of blinds as they were unusable and broken, bathroom fixtures were loose, and the general state of the room needed sprucing up. The reception was helpful and allowed us to stay an extra hour after checkout.

Customer service was very poor had few issues with missunderstanding infomation provided over the phone. Spoke to one person asking to find out what was going on which she hung up on me 4x for rest of the day no one would answer the phones as i was trying to get through to a manager. The girls who were on duty did not smile once or engage into the conversations. The only person who was outstanding when on duty was Jake. consistently provided exceptional service by attentively listening to my concerns, responding with patience and resolving issues efficiently.

I was warned that there were “undesirables” around this property but I enjoyed my stay. The staff were polite and helpful, the room was basic but clean and everything worked. As a budget place to stay it was perfect for me.

Stayed here for two nights, would NOT stay again. Room smelt like cigarettes, hallways smelt musky as if it was wet. Mould on the bathroom ceiling. Room card stopped working after the first night, reception is unattended between 12 and 1pm, couldn’t get into our room, rang the phone number on the entrance door for when reception is unattended, called twice no one answered. Our friend stayed in the room beside us, he had showered and realised there were no towels in the room. We went down to reception to let them know and requested a towel, the girl working didn’t say one word, no apology, just handed the towel over. Never again.
