The place is well located and the staff is very friendly.
Unfortunately, the quality of the room wasn’t good. Not very clean and lots of things missing: kettle, soap, sponge, only 2 glasses/ 1 cup/ 2 plates for 4 people. We asked the friendly guy working there and we got a few more things.
We had to wash again the cutlery and plates before using them. The windows were very dirty, etc.
The place has a lot of potential but needs some improvement.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
It was once a lovely place but is now everything is very dated and tired looking. Emergency housing on site as well which is very sad. Having said that, it was quiet and we slept well
Upon arrival we walk into the room and the stench was unbearable, it smelt like the room hadn't been open for at least six months. Towels and pillows had green snot marks on them. We had decided at this point we couldn't stay in this place. We had tried the TV but it also didn't work. We have never had to stay in a place as bad as this. We approached the front reception and he offered a refund as he understood are concerns.
The rooms were really tired and old, didn't feel clean at all. The volume button on the TV remote didn't work, so TV was way too loud. Some light bulbs needed replacing. Definitely asking too much per room for what was offered. Waste of money.

Awesome people to deal with. Very accommodating and cheerful!
Cockroaches in the kitchen, broken light fittings, broken window latches so screwed closed, broken toilet roll holder, shower Luke warm after 10 mins to warm up, holes in wall, fire alarm taped to ceiling. Mould throughout bathroom and stunk of it. Absolute tip, worst place we have ever stayed
The unit was spacious but a bit run down. For example, I could no longer read the labels on the stove top to know how hot the elements were, the ice box in the fridge was totally frosted over...
