Our Executive room that was able to sleep 3 with king bed & single bed had a total of 4 pillows with no extra bedding in the cupboards. Missing - towel rails, soap holder in shower that had a malfunctioning shower head & hairdryer. It had 2 glasses, 3 different cups, 1 bed light that needed changing. We reported the shower head issue but was not fixed for our 2nd day. Breakfast was not an option or offered. We will not be stopping there ever again.

I found someone's else doll, clothing and dirty socks in the room. At night woke up with brawl outside. Table lamp was broken, doap holder in shower broken, so could only keep toothbrush and soap on the shower floor, made a video of bed bug when woke early, smashed it to make a blood splash, found cigarett but wrapped in bedding inpecting my mattress for more bugs. Kitchen didn't work despite breakfast still advertised. Can keep going on with lesser issues, this place is a last resort...

Look, the studio room was really pretty good.Great position, a great room rate, and not a bad room…maybe better cleaning? I know I’m probably sounding picky, but the range hood in the studio room was covered in dust and the floor (bathroom included) really needed to be swept…shower head really needs to be replaced or at least repaired, and no towel rails or toilet paper holder,but, having said that, great position, great room rate and I’d probably stay there again!

Arrived at around 3pm for check in, reception closed. Sign said back in 10 only had to wait a couple of minutes. Found a pile of dirty and wet towels in the cupboard. Walked back to reception and staff removed them for us. Pillows were ridiculously thin, there was no more in the cupboard (I looked and found the towels ha!) woke up in the morning to find baby cockroaches on the wall and single bed my son was sleeping in. Few stains on carpet and walls and bench, which I expect in a property that age. Could do with a refresh, pest bombing too! We woke at about 6am as other guests were very noisy. No street noise though/couldn’t hear tram.
