Horrific
Pros: What is advertised is not what you get. Staff is rude and the place id dirty. No extra towels or linen, a struggle to get an extra pillow. Cam not even get a clean set of linen. Showers are dirty. Kitchen stove was rusty. Ceiling sagging looks like it will fall on you any moment. Was a battle just to get tomiet paper or extra tea. Staff are not attentive to your needs. Linen old and smells. Defintely not value for money Cons: The need a major revamp and false advertising
