Awful!! Do not book!!!!
Pros:

Absolutely nothing!

Cons:

We turned up to a dirty reception, a very unpleasant and disgusting receptionist who apparently was sleeping INSIDE the reception, then when we checked into our room there was blood stains on the mattress, which was visible through the bed sheets. Then we asked for a new room, and when we checked into the new room again, the mattress underneath the bed sheets was disgusting with brown-like stains that looked like shit. We then asked for a refund, which we have not received to date!
