This ‘hotel’ disappoints on almost every level. It’s unloved, unclean and ill-kept. The photos provided deceive extraordinarily well. A boiler sited above my bed fired up noisily throughout the night. The shower has two temperatures: boiling and paintstripping. The walls are flaking with damp and signs of leaks through the ceiling. Single glazed, cracked and rattling windows (I had to stuff toilet paper into the gaps). Mouldy sealant, dangerous electrics (one socket barely held in by nothing more than Sellotape), towels which smelt like they’d been used to wipe ashtrays, a bed so small, I couldn’t fit in it, no bin in the room, a dysfunctional toilet, broken TVs and zero soundproofing between rooms. The external digicode locks as almost everyone has pointed out are almost a practical joke and my room lock was held in by nothing more than a fistful of wood filler.
It’s very hard to understand why someone would want to own a hotel and yet provide such low grade accommodation. Dozens of reviews on another well-known booking site tell the complete story and I wish I’d looked there first. Almost exclusively awful descriptions with promises never to return. I shall do likewise and hope that this stands as fair warning to anyone nearly duped into staying at this complete and utter dump. The litany of complaints, long documented by every sorry guest, suggest that the owners have no intention of improving the offer: it is what it is and it’s awful. Come only if desperate.
