The space was clean enough, and my gusband said the staff were fine to deal with. The actual rooms were very dark, smelt, and there were patched up walls, unpainted. The notices up around the room gave us a sense that we weren't very safe and that there is generally a lot of domestic issues. The shower door didn't close and is an ok size for a young child but be prepared to shower with your elbows in. There were also no sanitary bins! The bathroom ceiling is very low!! It was good to have a fridge and a microwave available. You had to wash and drink from the bathroom tap though as there was no other sink. Overall, it was ok as we were always out and about but I wouldn't really recommend this place.

No airport shuttle pickup
I chose this hotel because i needed an airport shuttle from and back to the airport. On hotels.com it said there was a shuttle service. When I called from the airport to ask how to meet the shuttle I was told by hotel staff that there is no pickup service at all.. only dropoff. Also no dropoff service on Sundays. My stay was for Saturday night. Had i known this I would not have chosen this hotel. The soap provided in the shower had a beautiful scent. The room was adequate and quiet. There were other hotels that were quite less expensive with no shuttle service. Next time i will choose one of those.

The room is renovated, clean and nice if I could have seen it. I checked in after hours and left in the morning, which was all self-serve as the desk was not open. I never saw anyone running the property. The lights in my room did not work, so I had to go about in the dark. There was power elsewhere. Had there been a lamp in the room that would have worked.
