Like the other reviewer above, i also booked this hotel in error. Within 12 hours i had phoned and cancelled, however the next day they took the full amount for 3 nights stay out of my bank account.

The toilet brushes are filthy and I didnt go in the hotel the whole time I was there. I strongly recommend NOT to stay here. We were completely ripped off for £80 but... more

The room was so small the door could only open half way. The shower was the smallest and poorest i have ever seen. The bed had such a thin sheet you could see the mattress and the quilt cover had blood stains. But the final touch was the light switch outside the room! (See photo. The place was so bad... more
