Disliked: Room comfort
Do not stay here. Terrible. Rooms tiny no room for suitcases and people together. Shower was stainless steel made you feel like you are in the morgue. Bathroom full of mould. Owners are Chinese and have not put a cent into renovating this place to make it nice. The only good thing is the location. Would not put anyone in here.

This hotel is looking very tired, I hope that someone goes around with white paint and a paintbrush before the FIFA Womens World Cup to freshen it up or there will be unhappy guests. How about also repricing breakfast to include Tea/coffee?

The room itself was clean and street noise was fine, it was noisey guests coming and going ALL night a noisey guests in room next door laughing and partying loudly between 2-4am. It truly wrecked my nights sleep and next day as I was so shattered. Would not stay again.
