Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room was very very dirty floors in. Bed room had trash Under the bed from previous guests. Baht room had mould all over the floor the shower curtain had mould And dirt all over it The room was very unsafe as the door to the balcony was broken and could not be locked at all The fridge had leftover food from a previous guest There were cockroaches running around the room I have never seen a property so dirty I my life before The ceiling fans blades were black with build up dust. I understand some motels are aging but this was just Disgraceful filthy dirty As a result I will never book another hotel or motel accommodation with wotif ever again In my opinion you have a responsibility to make sure the accommodation you are hiring out is safe and clean I did not sleep at all last night as I felt very unsafe and Wasn’t going to sleep in the bed as the bed sheets possibly had not been changed as well. I photographed all of the dirt and mould an cockroach how can I send you the pictures I am Not looking for a refund at all I just want to forget the whole experience
