2/10 Poor

I had a terrible experience at this hotel. Over a 4-night stay, the bed sheets were never changed, and there was no room cleaning at all — not even basic housekeeping in the morning. Towels were not replaced, and despite requesting it, toilet tissue was never provided on the third day. The room lacked even a basic telephone, making communication with the front desk difficult. To make matters worse, the receptionist was rude and unhelpful when we raised these issues. Overall, a very poor experience. I would not recommend staying here.
MMFaniqul, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice staff. The room cleanliness isn’t horrible, but it also isn’t the best. There is a pretty consistent ticking noise that in the room. The walls are also pretty thin. Those 2 things prevented me from having a good night sleep.
crystal, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Could do better..

On the availabilities for a bar and restaurant. None. Breakfast was available but not a pleasent experience when staff members are arguing and swearing at each other... all because the eggs were finished and no one took away the banemarie and bring more for the residents... the apple juice was so watered down it was the colour of apple but tasted of water. The milk and coffee satchets in the room was out of date... bit of a shambles really... One bright spot... A fan was provided in the room and window open but secure as the room was very hot.
