Grace

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms were not turned down properly, smelt of cigarette smoke, and felt suffocating to breath in. The sheets were stained, with burn marks, and the smoke detector in the room was dangling off the ceiling covered in tape which prevented it from functioning properly. The area around the hotel was not the safest. The manager and staff were kind but it was not an ideal living arrangement.
