The hotel was closed down….
Pros:

Nothing I’ve requested a refund as the hotel was shut down and has been for months. We did not know this and still got charged….

Cons:

The fact it is shut down and we couldn’t stay here despite being allowed to book it? Still waiting on a refund.

Stop at your own risk
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

How can booking .com rate sierenty hotel a 3star when the place is more like a hostel with people smoking drugs and making lots of noise and is filthy. I'm disgusted with booking .com as the hotel is nothing like the photos.

Never ever book, an animal would not even stay.
Pros:

Looked like a dumbing ground / dumb outside, got half way up the stairs which looked like it had never seen a vacuum in its life, someone was whistling upstairs to someone for drugs! Never even looked upstairs & in room it was in a shocking state. Health and safety would shut them down. BEWARE, I paid for 2 night, still no refund 3 days later! (2 nights paid for, went straight out my bank.)
Fake photos as looks nothing like it is.

Cons:

Didn’t like a thing was in shocking state inside and out! Very unclean and health and safety would shut them down for the state of the place inside and out!

It was that bad we left
Pros:

There was nothing likeable in this hotel

Cons:

The place it’s self stunk, blankets were stained and in washed, no sheets on the bed and bed overall broken, things left in room from others. Staff offered one of my mates drugs as soon as entered. Holes in the walls and the door didn’t lock, all rooms were already open and unlocked when we got there and they didn’t have a key for my room. Didn’t have toilet paper or towels as stated on the booking website. We ended up finding a different hotel across the road for only £17 extra which was perfect.
