Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pool is out of service. As soon as we got into the room we had no power, had to go and get someone to reset the power box. Could not use the tv as the 2 remotes were for a complete different brand tv and would not change the Chanel. Supplied with 1 pillow. Went to reception to see if we could please get another pillow and a tv remote, was advised all rooms are full (even though there was hardly anyone there) so no pillow and they had to get maintenance for the tv. Both of which were not rectified. We have been here a few times before and it appears it sadly just keeps going down hill.

I walked in to see bugs crawling around on the floor. The couch was the most disgusting thing I have seen in all my time of travelling with work. The whole facility is so run down and dirty. I walked out after 5 minutes of being in the room and found another place to stay. Do yourself a favour and give this terrible place a miss.
