This hotel isnt fit for purpose. Hotel is clearly old and in much need of a complete refurb or even better still, knock it down! Abandoned football ground next door completely derelict and area doesnt exactly feel safe as signs all in car parks warning of crime. You couldnt pay me yo stay in this place again! Expedia, I would take this off your list now as the photos you've used dont show this hotel in its true light.

Quite disappointed
Very noisy about the floor. I can hear clearly who is going to this floor and everybody shut the door. The pictures when I reserved this hotel is not match in real. Very dark in my room. Very disappointed.

Average Hotel
Had to call a number on arrival as there was no one at reception when i arrived during the day. My room had everything i needed including a fan as my room was hot. There was a horrible odour in my room which smelt like cigarettes and the bathroom smelt of drains. The bed was comfortable and i slept well. Unfortunately i woke to lots of insect bites.
Ok hotel if you don’t like good service or helpful
I had to call reception at 9.20 as suddenly a smell of a drug was coming into my room. The receptionist said she would come and investigate as I believed it to be coming from the room next door. Nobody came! I called again and the reception line just rang out. The smell was making me feel uncomfortable. I have had to use a quarter bottle of perfume to try and disguise the small
Liked the room
Nice and quiet
Spacious
good value for money
Only down side Is no air con room quite warm during summer

Big family room, staff super helpfull and nice. Quiet, safe parking.
However, no air conditioning in the room. And oh boy was it cooking in the room. Even if they provide a spare fan. We jist couldnt go in the bathroom during the day it was litterally a sauna.
Would go back in cold months but not in summer. We would pay extra for air con and fridge if available
Lovely clean comfortable Hotel. I will definitely come back here

This may be an isolated case, but over the past three days I had to visit reception twice to have my key reprogrammed, as it stopped working.
Also, on Saturday night, the music played for far too long and made it difficult for me to get to sleep and rest properly before my competition.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful, especially the lady on the check-in desk on Saturday afternoon.
The room lights were either all on or all off, so we were not able to have a subdued lighting.
