Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The bathroom had mold in the shower and around the internal and external corners of the shower basin. The bathroom didn't have hooks or towel rails to hang the bath towels. The entrance area around of the building where the hotel room was, smelt of urine. The door handle of the building - which was supposed to be for security - where the room was, was broken and virtually hanging of the door. The ironing board didn't have a cover. I received a call to confirm my arrival time and was told that because I hadn't arrived by 7pm my booking was cancelled.
