At the entrance to the hotel we were met with a disgusting sewage smell for the duration of the stay. 1. Shower head broken - Did get repaired 2. TV in room didn't show more than 2 channels - Did get repaired next day 3. Handle of door hanging off between bedroom and living area so we couldn't close the door for fear of being locked inside 4. Sink in bathroom seemed to take forever to drain 5. Air-con wouldn't drop below 22 degrees After day 3 I got very sick with legionnaires-type symptoms and ended up in hospital. Whilst I have no evidence of this being from the hotel, it is usually caught from poorly maintained air-con units After returning from hospital on the last night of the stay, we needed to request another couple of days stay as I couldn't travel home in such a state. The reception told us they had no rooms. First thing the next morning (5 hours later) we asked a different person, and they miraculously found us another room. Got in to the new room to find the aircon not working. I already had a high temperature and the aircon wouldn;t drop below 29 degrees. Had to call maintenance who didn't fully fix it and spent some time vacuuming the filters in the aircon unit. This made me believe the air-cons were not fully maintained. Eventually, they had to provide a desk top fan. Finally, buffet poor value for money - Around £200.00 for 2 people! Not much selection. Closed early.
