Please improve your cleaning!

The location is convenient but the room was not cleaned properly such carpet, fridge, bed, bathroom, table and chairs even the toilet wasn’t flushed properly when I received the room. I hope they can do deep clean once and keep it in good condition from there . If they can improve their cleanliness, they will have more clients. I won’t be back with this cleaning. I don’t mind old furnitures but at least they are clean properly. So disappointed!

Uncomfortable stay.

The cleanliness of this motel was appalling. The dining chairs were disgustingly filthy. A pillow case was stained. The bed sheets were not flattened out or neat and tidy. The beds were so soft, they are ready for replacement. The shower alcove had a missing door handle. The manager did do his best to amend, however, i wouldn't be recommending.

Was dubious after reading other reviews. For the price of the room we were pleasantly surprised and would stay there again. I would give it a three star rating out of five. Obviously the rooms could be improved but we were quite comfortable.

I didn't rate it a 1 for cleanliness as the room had been cleaned, however the carpet is stained the couch grubby & everything is just years old & worn out. I couldn't turn the cold water tap on at all in the shower. The toilet kept filling after each flush if you didn’t repeatedly push the button. I couldn't stop sneezing from dust, probably in the curtains. It hasn't been refurbished since it was built decades ago. The couch is completely worn out & grubby from years of use. I dreaded going to bed as I thought it's going to be like the other furniture, I was surprised that the bed at least was fine. The kitchen supplies ie bar fridge microwave were all fine.The main light in the room was so dim I had to use my phone's torch to see inside my suitcase properly. If I had to rate it overall I would give it a 1.5 & that's for the bed & that it had been cleaned. It's just completely worn out & outdated & apart from the bed needs new furnishings, it all felt grubby.

Worst place ever, should be illegal to continue running it. Needs to be demolished. We left after 20min and returned home with our children on Christmas day. The places website are reviews are all old and they took down our reviews straight away. Really deceitful.

Location was convenient for our stay and maybe it's a case of if the price seems too good to be true it probably is. It was nice that the air-conditioner was on so the room was already cool on a hot day. One bed had stained sheets, the room had an off-putting smell, the crockery/ cups weren't clean so had to go get dishwashing liquid to use them, badly stained chair fabric, just didn't feel clean and overall sanitary.
