Good location and good value
Hotel was a great location and did the job for a few days. The bathroom could've been cleaner and the shower door didn't close properly and was very small, but all in all it was great value for money and most importantly the staff were very friendly and accommodating.

6/10 Good

Not a very good experience
Not so great experience, booked a deluxe room which was facing the swimming pool outside of neighbouring building and so noisy through out the afternoon and evening. One of the Receptionist was very friendly but there was a man at the reception who was extremely rude & wasn’t welcoming at all. There was wedding reception was happening today on 26th Aug with very loud music when sitting in the lounge area and toilets are unattended n unacceptable near the restaurant to use. Not a 5 star hotel I am afraid and I won’t recommend at all.
