Staff very nice on front desk on arrival. Room was tired. Toilet didn't properly and no power in the shower at all. Bedding had a stain on duvet cover. Reception not open 24/7 so had no one to contact. Beds hard but that suits me so that was a good thing. No breakfast included. No one to hand key to in the morning so left in box.

Wouldn't even give them a 1-star if possible. No one on site to speak with, except a man who said he didn't work there. No one answered the phone. Cold rooms, cold water, paid for breakfast, but it wasn't available, and again, no one was there....

I have never known such an unmanned hotel, the reception desk was only open for 3hours per day - i arrived later in evening and only just caught someone on the desk. Although she was very helpful it was very unorganised and she had to call her manager regarding my booking as clear instructions had not been left for her. I did not receive any confirmation from the hotel when i booked and had to make several attempts to contact the hotel prior to my booking along with numerous attempts at calling the hotel but with no response. i find it hard to believe that a hotel can be run this way. The room itself was clean and very basic but served its purpose. My negative would be all based on the running of the bookings and felt that better management was needed.
