Don't stay here
Pros:

Complimentary airport pickup. Excellent service. Near airport. Sheets and bathroom were clean.

Cons:

Hotel was totally run down, in need of full refurbishment. Carpets with huge stains, paint work in disgraceful state. Had asked for a quiet room. Very noisy from traffic.
Electricity in room seemed very dodgy. Several times (4 or 5) during night electrics went off and only by swapping room card and messing about with it would it come on again.
Tip - if heading to airport use Grab App - much cheaper than hotel arranged transport.
