When I arrived at the hotel and went into my room it was filled with black mould which I find a serious health and safety hazard especially for an establishment where you’d have people pay to stay. This is completely unacceptable and I will be dealing with this properly.

If I were 20 years old again and traveling with friends, this hotel would have been fine. The rooms were extremely small and I couldn't even turn around in the shower. Young people wouldn't mind; I did.
