We originally booked this hotel as we thought it would be cheap and cheerful however it turned out to be just cheap and miserable. Here are the reasons why: Location is in the rough area of the city, very drab and run down. The reception area is very small and the lift is tiny. Our first room was next door to the elevator shaft and would have been impossible to sleep through the noise if we had actually spent the night there. We asked to change rooms and the second room looked exactly the same, very plain, basic and dirty. The floor obviously hadn’t been vacuumed, there were stains on the carpet and up the walls and stains on the curtains. Most disappointing of all is that the bed sheets, duvets and pillows were full of holes and stained. Anybody with an expectation of basic hygiene will be disappointed with this hotel. The bathroom was so small you had to turn sideways to get into the shower (and I’m only a UK size 12)! The fixtures in the bathroom were loose, the towels were frayed and old and generally in a shabby state. The breakfast was very basic and the atmosphere was unfriendly in a small canteen style room. We were actually booked in for a 3 night stay but only stayed the first night as it was so bad. We complained to the manager in the morning but he just shrugged his shoulders and couldn’t have been less interested. We left the next morning with no refund for the nights we didn’t stay but were just relieved to leave. This hotel is fine if you’re just looking to crash somewhere after a drunken night out but don’t expect anything more. We would never stay here again and would not recommend it to anyone.
