It was good but there was only one towel ready for us instead of three ,which makes it incomplete. The pillows were a-bit higher than usual , which made our necks hurt, and the fan wasn’t strong enough. But it was a good stay overall.

Carpet in room stained and general decor bit scruffy. Swimming pool was out of action, which was disappointing as we had scheduled this into our stay. Reception staff not particularly enthusiastic.

Unfortunately, the pool was not in operation due to maintenance. The room was old and no thermostat available to control the air, the room was boiling. Tried purchasing bottle of water but none available, no shampoo/conditioner in room. Pillows were hard and sheets were stained. The friendlyness of the staff was to e bare minimum. The hotel was run down.

The property overall was tired and unkept .The room had been smoked in and was shabby.The mattress and pillows were worn out and uncomfortable. The bathroom facilities were outdated and not working very well although plenty of hot water. The hotel food was disappointing and not worth the money and made us unhappy staying there.

The staff were unfriendly. The whole place was tired and unclean. The pool was freezing and area dirty. The breakfast was very basic. The room had mould around the windows and stains over the walls. I would not stay here again.

Staff were friendly and efficient. The bathroom was clean as were the sheets and bed linen. However the curtains were filthy and the tv remote didnt work. As i was only staying overnight it didn't affect my stay but i would have raised it if i was staying longer.
