Dirty and chaotic hotel
We were booked in for 3 nights. First room we were given was filthy and had numerous broken fittings such as shower and toilet flush. We were moved to another room that was marginally cleaner. We pointed out missing light bulbs and non working radiators but these were never fixed. They then forgot to clean that room. We were promised a refund but that has not been paid! Every time we complained the staff were very apolgetic...but after a catalogue of issues we just cant think of anything good to say. Very dissappointing.
