Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I’m not sure if it was just me but I felt I was haunted. The TV was on itself at 3AM and there was this odd noise on the ceiling. The smell from the sewage drain in the bathroom kept me awake all night. I had to wake up at 2am to find something to block the space underneath the bathroom door. I did light up my scented candle all night, but the smell still didn’t go away. The cleanliness was terrible with the price I’m paying. Honestly, I didn’t have much sleep and it made me wonder if it was the worst stay I’ve ever had. Some of the staff were friendly, some didn’t even look at me. So overall stay if you can find somewhere with similar price I would not recs.

Rooms were ok but they had a really strong smell of mould. Building surrounds could use some love to, as the outside court yard was not suitable for the kids to run around in

Rat droppings scattered along the walkway to the room. Locked out of the room twice - once outside office hours - because of the “weather”… Continental breakfast included in room fee. No food in the bains (empty/clean) and no staff to speak to get breakfast. Ended up spending another $40 eating breakfast out.
