Robert

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Stayed here for one night and would not return. Public areas were dirty as was the bar. The electric plugs from tv system in bar was a joke!!! All wires twisted and plugged into adapter. Staircase was dirty and carpet was threadbare in places. Looked into the function room and it had not been cleared of glasses and drinks since a function five days earlier!!! Looked like the people had just got up and left with half drunk drinks lying on tables. Our room was very dated and the light switch for the toilet was a bit difficult to find. Finally located it behind the wall mounted tv!! Didn’t use the shower as it certainly didn’t look appealing!!! Cushions on bed were dirty. Electric wires hanging out of tv plug. We made a hasty exit without having breakfast!!! Would definitely not return to this hotel.
