Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We had a late check in with 2 adults and 2 children- which they were aware of. Only 2 beds made up. Made up the sofa bed- the sheets stank and the mattress may as well just been springs and it was banked either side with a hole in the middle to roll into. The heater stank. We had 2 young children and there were broken power sockets.
