Liked: Staff & service
In the first 3 days i was there the bin was emptied on day one but no bed made or any other cleaning done. After i spoke to the receptionist on day 3 she did the room herself. Microwave did not work properly and was cracked..unsafe. No electrical items appeared to be tested and tagged. Aircon was very effective, bedding was clean. Some mould in the shower and on the shower curtain.
