I was able to have a hot shower, when my daughter went to have a shower, the water was cold. The rubber foot mat that is provided for people to use in the shower was stuck against the wall where the clean hand towel was leaning against it. This absolutely repulsed me.

For the price you can get much nicer rooms in the area. The room was old and the cupboard that has the spare pillows was full of dead ants. Food from the hotel was good and the lady at reception was nice. Only stayed here as the the ad said it had a gym well it didn’t. It had a couple of old broken down machines. Will give it a miss next time.

There was no hot water and the shower was leaking, the basin tap was loose. I tried to call in the morning about no hot water for a shower but nobody answered the phone. I have called since my return home to discuss the issues and was promised a callback. No callback so far. I won’t be staying there again and I have told my colleagues not to book here either.

Location central to everything.

Planned to get away for a few days, but our stay was cut short due to unforeseen circumstances . The room was good for what we wanted, but was a little disappointed that there was no microwave in the room.
