It was difficult to get into the building, which was shut. A phone number was listed. The entrance was in a narrow lane with key safe boxes. The hotel itself was closed up and not operational. The bedrooms were clean and linen clean. The one common toilet and one common shower were dirty and unusable. What is on your website should be removed as it gives a bad name to you company. Someone should visit. I would recommend that you do not deal with this property. Thank you for the opportunity to share our experience

It was dingy, hard to find how to get in, I have photos of the grossest sink and bath I have ever used, I was next to the men’s toilet and bathroom which were used late and very early this morning so interrupting sleep. The woman who came to let me in was friendly. I didn’t check the ratings so I guess it’s my bad. I did try to find another hotel after I saw it but couldn’t find one.

It was an old hotel, but apart from one very large cockroach, it was very clean. You need to realise that these cockroaches fly in and the window was open. I would definitely stay there again during the Carnival of Flowers. For just an overnight stay it was fine.

If it just a bed you are after, then The Met is ok. It is basic, clean and the other people are quiet. The shared bathrooms are ok, take thongs. The rooms just have a bed and a hand basin. They do get cold in winter, warm clothes is a must After long days at FarmFest the sports club next door is the perfect place to have a great meal and a wind down until time to go to sleep as there is not kuch in the room to do. The cafe/kitchen is very basic with a microwave and fridge. With tea and coffee available. All in all for the price, The Met is fine. Parking is on the street

If what you look for is somewhere to sleep, it's totally fine . If you're on a tight budget and not look for the most convenient and comfortable stay, it's is welcome. I'm happy with my stay, with what I paid for. 🙂
