The shower in the room was poor water was not hot enough and the pressure was poor. The cubical was to short It was in need of in grade. The continental breakfast was poor the variety was very limited and the facilities were very functional and very like a youth hostel not hotel The hotel is in need of an upgrade but the room was clean and comfortable the staff were warm friendly.

Decor requires updating. Rooms too hot, unable to adjust heating. More water coming out of body of tap rather than spout. Unable to watch TV while sat in bed as tv in a poor position on wall. Light on dressing table, cord too short to plug in.

This place was a disgrace and nothing like the original ad. The bathroom had a shower that didn’t work properly so we had a semi cold shower. No bath matbt but a doormat. Breakfast didn’t happen. No one around we were meant to make our own toast etc. no butter or jam. Instant coffee, no milk. We left. Mohammed the owner was very angry we weren’t pleased and called me a liar while shouting g at me. Unreal. Place is very tired and few guests. Depressing and tacky. We noted no one came to the restaurant attached to the hotel. I travel a lot and came from the other side of the world. Ironically we’d stayed at 2 Airbnb properties and this was to be our hotel as a change. Never again. Appalling
The young man at the desk when we arrived was great. The ONLY good thing

“The worst.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 1 night
I've never come across a place with as little hospitality as this. Reasons: 1) When asked if a double-bedded room is available instead of the twin bedded that had been booked, a possible answer could've been to ask whether beds should be pushed together for us rather than just saying "no". 2) The rooms are "practical" with zero attention for detail. Amenities in the rooms were poor accordingly, no hairdryer. 3) The rooms weren't clean - dead flies at the windowsill, spiderwebs in corners, dust and dirt on the carpet, etc. 4) "Mountain view" from the (dirty, rickety) window isn't that nice anymore when you face a dirty, rundown backyard first. 5) Old towels in the bathroom, smelling of cigarette smoke for any reason. So did linen and bedsheets. 6) Uncomfortable mattress where we could feel the springs. 7) The rooms are badly soundproofed, and we could hear our neighbours coughing all night. 8) In the morning, when looking forward to washing away the experiences so far and make a fresh start, we didn't solely have poor water pressure in the shower but dripping water only. Also, the water was cold - warm water not available in the shower or at the sink. 9) Breakfast was the "grand final": No personnel anywhere, instead a dark "breakfast room" with chains as curtains that make you feel like a prisoner. To eat and drink: different cheap cereals, old looking fruit, toast, instant coffee - and in a fridge partially empty glasses of jam and marmalade, packed up fruit, milk and orange juice. Also a highlight: the muesli-bowl-freebies from Kellogg's (pictures attached). To cut it short: We were relieved to leave this place. I don't ever judge a book by its cover, so even if the outer appearance isn't perfect (which is the case here), it might be totally different from the inside. But unfortunately, there actually is zero love and understanding for accommodating guests, everywhere we looked.

“Horrific.”

No staff, no clean towels, no toilet roll replaced, no view from window as covered up making it impossible to see out. Hall carpet absolutely filthy and feet stuck to it. Bathroom extractor fan with a serious layer of dust over it, patently hasn't been cleaned in years. Worst shower I have ever encountered. Breakfast a complete farce. Whole premises in need of some serious refurbishment
