Do not stay here
Pros:

Location was fine

Cons:

I didn't end staying overnight as it was so bad and not worth the money! Stains on the sheets, room smelled on entered and not 100% clean. It was also very noisy facing out to the public area across the road showing World Cup matches. I had to ring a mobile to get attention at reception and one of the staff was lazing on the balcony on a loud video call with no attempt to help anyone waiting at reception. Dreadful place. I do not recommend!

Pros:

Good location and room was big.

Cons:

My door didn't lock.
Shower was in a poor condition.
Reception and main areas stunk off weed.
Room was shabby, remote cover missing, sink filthy, seating area very worn and curtains didn't meet in the middle.

Great location and ok service but Unfortunately, the condition of the property fell well below expectations.
Pros:

Nothing really apart from the location being in the city and walking distance to restaurants.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the condition of the property fell well below expectations. The bathroom, particularly the shower and bathtub area, showed visible signs of rust and poor maintenance. I also found an unusual insect on the pillow and bedding, which was particularly concerning from a cleanliness perspective. While I appreciate that issues can occasionally arise, the overall standard of hygiene and upkeep left a lot to be desired and significantly affected my stay.
