This place was one of the most unpleasant places I have ever stayed at. To begin with, we checked into our room which had not been cleaned from the previous occupants. Then after they switched our rooms, they ran out of towels, linen and key cards so we had to share 2 of each between 6. The paid buffet breakfast is atrocious and has no hot food. The staff are about as useless as an ashtray on a motorbike. And finally it’s in a very dodgy area. Couldn’t discourage people further from staying here.
