Rubbish from previous guests still in room. While bedding linen was refreshed, the rooms were otherwise uncleaned. The establishments online advertising definitely misrepresents the actual condition of the facilities. Expected good Wi-Fi to allow updating and checking of onward travel and activities - NO Wi-Fi functioned for the period of our stay. The place was such a letdown, although we had booked and paid for 2 rooms for 2 nights, we left after 1 night, forfeiting our payment for the 2nd night. This establishment should be avoided.

The staff were very helpful and nice. The whole place needs a lot of maintenance include the front entrance which gives an unclean vibe and as soon as you walk into the lobby it smells like a public toilet as they have some smelly things on the Air con unit, for the price they need to do better. Quite run down when you start looking.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean. The bed was on its last legs and made for a very uncomfortable sleep. The fridge in the room froze our toddlers milk and breakfast more than once despite notifying staff. The lack of microwave in the room meant we had to go to the reception to warm a bottle and defrost breakfast, which was frustrating but the staff were very friendly and happy to help.
