Great location. Admitting it is budget, but the cleanliness of doors, table, tv remote and shower were sub standard. It was fine for me, a middle age man who’s not a germaphobe, however wouldn’t suit alot of people, like the rest of my family if they were staying with me

2/10 Poor

It was filthy inside and outside. Beds were ok Cracks in shower floor. Paint peeling off the walls Spider webs on windows with ripped curtains. Laundry was full of rubbish and filthy. No way could you use the laundry. Towels were all frayed in the bathroom. The woman wanted us to pay cash. We paid half cash and half card. I would never recommend that place and I do not think Hotels.com should. Worth maybe 100.00 a night definately not 649.00 for 3 nights. The saying " You get what you paid for" and we certainly did not get what we paid for. We overpaid by $300.00

They charge 200 directly to card as bond which is fine. Problem is they don’t refund. Don’t trust them.
