None of the televisions were working in any room. They knew this before people arrived but there was no reduction in price. Very unhappy as we couldn't get any picture using the internet either.

Disliked: Staff & service
Room was clean enough but shower needed some exit mould. Light flickering. Fixed on request by friendly guy. Dirty dishes from someone’s room service left outside room for 36 hours. Entrance flooded during a storm. Person on front desk average, not overly friendly. Overall, adequate but will try to find something better next time.

Incredibly disappointed. Spa had faeces floating in it. The bathroom was unclean. The window sill had the word “yuck” written in the dust from a previous occupant.

It was good for a last minute booking, so I wasn’t very picky. It was just little things: 1) TV wouldn’t work, 2) light flickering in the room.
