Staff nowhere to be found. Number on google doesnt work, and the cell number i had to ring over 5 times to get an answer. Got into room, smelled musty, old food and foul- like it had been used for some sort of emergency housing. Place was tidy however due to stains all over carper throughout and smell i could not stay here. I booked somewhere else down the road.

The whole unit needs a good clean - mould in the shower - the shower curtain hadn't been washed for ages - it was mouldy and had soap residue. There were no tissues ont eh box in the bthreoom. Light shades in all reas were filthy. Curtains were hanging off the rail in the bedroom - the kitchen blind was filthy - there were splatters up the kitchen window - the mugs had dirty rings on the inside of them. The unit smelled of old cooking smells. The carpet was worn and had holes in it. The Skirting boards were grimmy and dusty - there was dust under the bed in the lounge and a previous guest's sports bandage under the bed. The rubbish bins were smelly.We were in unit 10. There was mould on the window sills in the rooms and on the windows.

There were holes in everything, the curtain was ripped and not hung up. This would have been fine if it were not for the sheets which were the most plastic pure synthetic awful things I have ever had the displeasure of touching. It wasnt even that cheap either for the price the least they could do is fix the holes and give you cotton sheets
