We stayed in a ZIP Room for disabled facilities. No Drawers in the room Tiles in bathroom need a deep clean Room was not cleaned on one day of the four day stay King-size bed adequate Towels great Toiletries Fantastic Room needed to be a bit bigger as hard to get around in a wheelchair but not impossible. Could not get a coffee after 9 30 am or after 7 30 pm from restaurant even though we ate there the first night. Expected better from an ACCOR / Mercure facility.

The bathroom was gross- the shower room was not cleaned with hair from previous guest all over the shower; grime; shower water flowing out of the shower; the toilet seat broken; broken hanger and clothes from previous guest left in closet; huge stained sheets still used even if cleaned. Extremely gross and will not book again. Seems others have raised the same concerns from other review sites but the hotel does not seem to care as nothing has been done to improve. This is an embarrassment for the Mercure/Accor group and should get the owners to budget more ; review their KPI.

The rooms were filthy. We checked in, went to our room and noticed the floor was dirty, the stove top and splash-back were filthy, there was left over food, open milk bottles, excessive mould throughout the bathroom. It honesty appeared like the room wasn’t cleaned from the prior tenant. The facilities were also well overdue for maintenance - chunks out of walls and nails sticking out. The kettle had a hole in the base and water leaked over the cord - an extreme hazard. The one plus was the breakfast & breakfast staff - food was great & staff were lovely. Overall, I would never stay at this property again.
