Average stay

The hotel was extremely cold. Especially in the dining area. We were told it had been a long hot summer and that’s why air con was on. We pointed out that it was now Autumn and cold. Public transport to the hotel isn’t good. You either have to get off at the nearest stop then navigate steep steps. Or go to the next stop and navigate a very steep hill. At 75 years of age this isn’t easy. Especially with luggage. On our arrival we did hire a taxi and for a 5 minute journey it cost £16.90. On a positive note the hotel was quiet & probably the nearest hotel to the airport.

Russel

Very poor service for travellers needing a sleep!

On arrival I had to wait for someone I tried calling but no answer so eventually I had to go through the door to the kitchen to get someone to come and sort out my registration and key card. Not what you want with a 3am arrival. I then asked if I could have a wake up call for 6am as I had no phone alarm volume for some reason, they said they could not do this but my tv had an alarm. After 20 mins of trying I had to go and find someone again, no one at reception again and the gent confirmed that my tv did not have an alarm function but offered to change the one on the wall for a different one. Now about 3.45 I wanted to get to bed not wait for a new TV so the gent said he would set his alarm and come and wake me at 5.50. The gent never arrived and fortunately I had a freind who called me at 6am otherwise I would have slept in and missed my flight.

The pull out sofa was out when we arrived to the room, and there was what appeared to be blood stains on it. There was questionable stains on the sofa, ceiling tiles in the bathroom were falling off. We got no where with staff when we approached them with concerns.
