I stayed 2 nights, the house keeper did not attend the room to make the bed, they did not empty the bin, replace the towels - they just did not attaend to the room to make it. Very dissappointed as the location was good, room was a little noisy with people arriving at 2am and slamming car doors etc.

Firstly we booked a room with Queen bed and single bed. From the airport we arrived about 1am to find a room upstairs with horrible stairs, get into the room to find 3 single beds. First error. My son is over 6 ft tall so this was a huge problem, his feet hung over the edge all night. The mattresses were rock hard so neither of us slept well. 3am the smoke alarm went off and woke us both.Next morning when my son had his shower he noticed toothbrush, soap wrappers etc etc on the top ledge. i’m short so when i had my shower i could easily see the soap wrapper. Very poor.. Management were informed, we were offered breakfast but we did not have any time for that but offered no part refund or discount on any further booking. very poor service.
