Not 4 Star Hotel

TripAdvisor rating 3.0/5

Andy3186 TripAdvisor review

Only good thing about this hotel is its location. Its tired and rundown. carpets stained, leaking shower head, sauna was not operational at the time, pasts of the lift interior sticky taped, and if you have a largeish car its almost impossible to fit in their car spaces. Staff on check in were not overly welcoming and felt like for of a hinderance. Very tired and rundown hotel. Definataly NOT 4 Star. 3 at best.
