The room smells old, damp and of dog. When asked bout the smell of the room, they said to open a window. They sprayed disinfectant spray in the room to make it smell clean.

The door to the room had to use force, lots of force to open and close the door. Towels were unclean stained from past use. The room was run down rusted, the lounge was uncomfortable and you sank into it, could only sit in it for a few minutes before you get back pain. Overall happy to leave in the morning.

The door didn’t lock, had been kicked in too many times. Was an awful homeless village and we did not sleep a wink. Everything was filthy, outdated and broken. Cracked tiles in shower, broken bathroom door. Filthy couch. Plastic chairs for dining setting and pillows filthy. Gross- abort

The property manger refused to refund my in-advance payment when I was unable to use the room because the airline cancelled my afternoon flight to get there at short notice, despite phoning the establishment and informing them as soon as I had been told at the airport - while waiting to board the plane - that there was no flight. So, no flight, no arrival, but communication made with the Excelsior that the room could be rebooked for someone else, still no refund.

It's really rundown and has had little or no maintenance for many years. Reception staff had less personality than Siri. Chipped tiles, leaky taps, broken lights,ismated plastic outdoor furniture for the room. But it was cheap and the only place 8 could get at short notice. Very good position, clearly waiting for demolition after the development application is approved.
