AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

Awful hotel AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! When booking they state to email or call beforehand to arrange late check in if after 8pm, I emailed as soon as booked for a reply to say to email again on the day of arrival, I did this, as well as WhatsApping and calling, they ignored and then refused to check us in! They then put us down as a ‘no show’ cancelling the rest of our stay and refusing to refund any money back!!! This left us on the street in the middle of a foreign country the first night and then had to try and find someone to stay the rest of of our holiday and pay again despite not getting any money back for our booked stay with this hotel! On top of this, the staff were so rude, laughing in our faces when we were left stranded!!! Wouldn’t wish what happened to us on our worst enemy!!!

Déçue du service

J’ai été prévenue 6 jours avant que l’établissement ne pouvait honorer ma réservation. On m’a proposé un nouvel hôtel mais j’ai dû appeler de moi même à l’étranger pour savoir comment obtenir le voucher et comment faire une fois sur place. Par curiosité j’ai fait une simulation de réservation dans cet hôtel qui était moins cher que l’hôtel de Gale et de moindre qualité. À aucun moment on ne m’a proposé le remboursement de la différence. Je suis déçue du service !

This property is a con. AVOID WITH ALLLL COST. They happy to take your money. But not willing to provide a service. Dont bother emailing them. Deliberately dont answer so they can avoid allowing you to checkin. Then blame you for missing checkin. Expedia email to help you try get money back.... but No still down nearly £800. No1 is willing to take liabilities. So AVOID AVOID

Bad trip

Hotel ruim, para chegar à recepção tem que descer quase 20 degraus com malas . Para acessar os quartos também tem que subir e descer escadas. Quartos sem ventilador , calor terrível . Cama ruim, colchões velhos e irregulares . Local de café da manhã com pouco espaço, para tomar café no terraço tem que passar por cima de uma janela . Banho frio pela manhã . Toalhas são trocadas a cada 3 dias . Mobilia velha e desgastado. Janelas com trincos precários. Para usar o cofre do quarto tem que pagar ( em outros hotéis é grátis ) . Não recomendo a ninguém

Péssimo hotel, os quartos não tem nenhuma forma de refrigeração , nem mesmo um ventilador , um verdadeiro forno . Camas com colchões velhos e irregulares, para usar o cofre tem que pagar( os hotéis são o uso do cofre como cortesia) . Excesso de escadas , para idosos e pessoas com problemas de locomoção andar pelo hotel é um desafio . Funcionários mal preparados , um deles disse não haver elevador , mas havia . Local do café da manhã muito pequeno, para tomar o café no terraço é preciso pular uma janela . Em um dos dias a máquina de café quebrou, um dia hóspedes teve que ir ajudar a cozinheira a fazer café .
