Grossed out.
Pros:

Location was good

Cons:

Bed sheets were dirty - there was hair, sock fluff, and wrinkled sheets like they had not been changed. I took a photo of the hair (likely pubic). Being late and an unstaffed hotel I had to strip the sheets and turn them upside down in the hope it would be clean enough to sleep on. There was no other linen in the room so had cover pillow with a towel.
Lighting in the room is terrible - only bright white overhead lights, no soft lighting or even a bedside lamp.

0/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND
Pros:

The location

Cons:

Unfortunately, as soon as walking into my room the smell hit me in the face, I had to open the window, turn the fan on high and buy Glen 20. There was mould all over the floor and walls, unknown marks stains on the walls, left over rubbish from the last stayers. Stained bedding, pubic hair on top of the bed and under the sheets, where it was uncomfortable to I slept on top of my own beach towel. Benches and study table had not been cleaned in who knows how long.

Please avoid if you are deciding to take a stay with you family , kid , partner.
Pros:

Just digital locks , elevator, big shared kitchen facilities. Which we couldn’t use . And a vending machine with drinks and confectionary.

A separate toilet ,microwave, cattle, big fridge , pillows , lamp , AC and TV were available in the room .

Cons:

Very smelly because of Cigarette evidence, no tissues box , no shower shampoo, conditioner, body wash , dryer , sanitary paper bag , shower cap none of these was provided.

Even exhaust fan was not working or loght switch was hard to press .

Toilet seat cover was discomfort due to brocken locks and hinges.
Very smelly toilet-bathroom it seemed someone or people used doing smoke inside alot.
Shower area was congested.

No parking space, u have to pay or park outside. Its unsafe. As location is not safe as well.
