The staff were very, rude! One of them even requested that i should go ask the person that booked the room, insinuating that i couldn't have booked the room by myself. They told me that rooms can only be cleaned after 3 days. This is the worst i have ever seen any hotel all my life. I wouldn't advice any right thinking person to stay there.

The bed was comfy and great water pressure in the shower. Heater a little noisy. Could benefit from an extra blanket just in case and a face washer. Reception team were great. Very kind and courteous on my pre arrival call and during check in. Considering on a busy roadway, I barely heard any noise.

Guess it’s okay in a pinch.

Room was dusty and dirty, bathroom was mouldy and generally dirty. Bathroom sink was in bedroom on other side of the room. Bed sheets seemingly clean but stained. Floor was hairy, chunks of debris. Didn’t look like it had been swept. Under the bed was revolting. Door didn’t have security bolt/chain, just a lock. Nothing was broken. Vent cover in bathroom missing. Only two pillows on queen bed. One flat and one weirdly stuffed. Everything else was fine.
