Breakfast service was good but poor services because the online description of the facility that influenced my booking was misleading and did not match the room provided upon my arrival and I had security concerns.

This place was what I could describe as the worst place. They gave my room to someone else and couldn’t get them out and gave me what I could describe as staff quarters no tea coffee I didn’t sleep as I felt unsafe as a lone woman and a member off staff was shouting on her phone most of the night. Keep well away

Only stopped at this place for one night. Couldn't stop for longer. It's very basic and dated. The breakfast is not good and very limited. I felt it was expensive for what it was. It was worth half what I paid.

The beds were so squeaky you could hardly sleep. They only supplied one pillow each. The breakfast was more for non English without a doubt. Electric wires hanging out inside the building everywhere. Wasn’t impressed at all

This has to be the worst place i have ever stayed in. Dirty room, Dirty bathroom & toilet with mold all over the ceiling and walls and shower cubicle. No hearing the room was like an ice box and i wasnt suprised when the radiator in the room didnt work. Who ever owns this place needs to take note of all the reviews that i have read and the last thing i wajt my money back.
