Don’t be fooled by the 4 star rating.
Place is long over due for a make over. Poor maintenance and cleaning, hand marks on mirror, dust build up on pedestal fan blades, around light switches and heater. Could go on but that’s enough to put you off. Reception needs to learn a bit about how to receive their customers. First impressions at arrival from reception was very poor and seemed like that just wanted to hurry up and get my money. Probably before I could see the room and cancel. Tip - ask to see the room before paying. Wouldn’t stay here again. Star rating must have been from 20 years ago, it was probably quite nice back then.
