The room was okay but there was a really strong sewage/drains smell, particularly when the shower was used. The mattress was very uncomfortable and the noise levels from the entertainment downstairs were high. The room was clean and well equipped though.

Disturbed nights sleep

Woken up around 11.00 pm by a load of youngsters until 2.00am. I understand they want to have fun but not at the expense of my sleep. The hotel manager did apologise for the disturbance in the morning.

Disappointed

Hotel very dated. Fixtures around 40 years old. Sheets and towels reasonable quantity. Room was clean. The bed was very uncomfortable. Cheap mattress. Lots of children running wild around the corridors and bar areas, whilst their parents drinking. Not good value for money We won't be returning.
