Liked: Cleanliness
Words fail me. It was the worst place I have ever stayed. The view from our room was of a delapidated old garage full of rubbish collected from the rooms such as old beds and the like. Then there was the back of another hotel with stepladder and a satellite dish. The room was depressing with nothing to use to cook in the microwave. Despite that being the only method of heating food. The furniture was old and decrepit and the settee had a piece of hardboard under the shabby cushions which made it very uncomfortable to sit on. I would strongly suggest that you avoid staying here at all costs.This shouldn’t be listed on a reputable website.
