Was aware of the low ratings for this hotel, but realized that it was really that bad when we got there. If not for the cheap price, i wouldn't consider staying there again. I guess you get what you pay for. 😔

Cheap and cheerful, nice and friendly staff. Paper thin walls and every time I've stayed the TV control has never worked other than that it's a good hotel.

First room we went into had a strong stench of cigarettes and the bed sheets were damp. Went to reception and they gave us 3 keys for different rooms to try out. Each had their own issues. Dusty and unkept rooms. Very outdated

The bed in the room was not comfortable and the walls were stained and dirty. Pillows were lumpy and neither of us slept very well.

As soon as we entered the room, we felt that smelly heavy odor of damp. Even the shower head had some black moldy looking areas, as well as the tiles in the bathroom. Sheets and towels were clean but towels felt a bit damp.

Mushrooms and black mould growing on the walls. Hot water barely works, water pressure was awful and made to feel unwelcome by management. All in all avoid this place
