This hotel has a 'PETS POLICY' which apparently is more important to them than a 'GUESTS POLICY'...
Pros:

Room was big and clean.

Cons:

Tired furniture that badly needed replacing. Bathroom too small and very cramped. Across the hall there was a dog which was barking like crazy. It was loud. We contacted reception. 2 of them came to our floor and were trying to tell us that they had a 'pets policy' so couldn't really do much about it....I mean...A PETS POLICYY ????? WHAT ABOUT THE COMFORT OF THE GUESTS...???..anyway, they contacted the owner who came back later to quieten the dog down. Thankfully. BUT, it was the staffs attitude about it that I dd not like!!!...as though we were being unreasonable...

Poor night sleep due to night club music
Pros:

Very nicely done inside

The music from the night clubs went on until 2pm and you could hear the bass music thumping through the room. No an once of rest the while night.
Will not book it again
