−I must have not read the room would be avail at 3pm unlike most at 2pm. I had to ask if the bottom sheets were clean as one had many holes in it they were so threadbare. Heaters came on at 7pm so rooms were cold prior. My son had the top bunk so was so hot due to the heater on the ceiling and no thermostat. No fire alarm in the room. I was woken about 1130 when someone was knocking and trying to get into my room. Same about 2am. They couldn't get in but I felt unsafe if I needed to get up to use toilet in the middle of the night. One female toilet was blocked. I told reception in the afternoon and had to retell the cleaner the next morning. I saw him throw the toilet plunger on the ground in the hall, still with toilet paper clinging to it. Disgusting and unhygienic. Horrible. Uncomfortable beds. Bottom sheets threadbare. Pillows were pretty much non existent. Cold throughout. No heating in eating area or lounge. Painting peeling. Overpriced for what you get. Avoid.
