Horrific the worst place i have stayed in regards to room clenliness
Pros:

Breakfast was the only part of the experience I enjoyed

Cons:

Room was absolutely filthy, carpets was not hoovered, towels stained,spoons dirty, dust was thick everywhere, marks all over wall, spillage of some sort on carpet and windows was so badly dirty couldn't see through them and paid upgrade for sea view which we could hardly see, window frame had some sort of sauce all spilt down it, I work as a head housekeeper amd that was over all poor standards, on the positive side I did enjoy the breakfast.
