I booked this hotel as it had 2 pools and breakfast in the restaurant. 24hrs after my cancellation window closed they emailed to say they were “delighted” to share that both pools and the restaurant were being refurbished and therefore closed. I was meant to be given a voucher for breakfast at a nearby cafe but wasn’t and when I realised the reception was locked up and I never saw it open again. We were apparently in a luxury kingsize with a balcony, I’ll let you decide when on the balcony from the pics. There was no aircon and the room was 29 degrees constantly, there was a fan but it just moved hot air around. The room wasn’t serviced not that that mattered as we was only there 2 nights. Another small gripe - there were only 1 pillow per person with no extras available in the room.
Hotel was shabby, but rooms in good condition. Was not aware at time of booking of additional bond required which should now be refunded. Chareged ammount was higher than listed cost.
Spacious room, competitive prices. Good for families

Reception hours limited. Very narrow treads at staircase resulting in difficulty to carry large luggages.
No exterior lights, limited parking spaces and unreliable main entrance door
Property overall was clean, room was spacious and comfortable. Short walk to supermarkets and shopping area and 15mins to city centre. Check-in was quite a cumbersome process, having to fill in additional forms and pay the security deposit electronically, which took an extra 10-15mins.
There was no kitchenette/sink, the duvet and sheets had stains on them, the shower looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in months and it had yellow stains by the drain and mold where the soap and shampoo sit. The sink in the bathroom had the same yellow stains and limescale on the faucet. The shower leaked during and after a shower and the water went cold when someone in a neighbouring room used their shower or sink. We were under the impression that we would have our room cleaned daily like most hotels but our room wasn’t touched for the 4 days that we stayed. We were not informed that you had to request daily housekeeping which I think is a bit stupid. We probably won’t come back here again and I wouldn’t recommend this place, especially since the pictures advertised looked much nicer than what we actually stayed in.

Bathrooms, shink at bathroom and bath shower area need to clean properly other than that stay was really good, clean and tidy, staff was nice.
This hotel has the most complicated check in procedure I've ever experienced, forms on paper then scan QR code to fill in another form by everyone from each room, although all under one booking...
