“Stay-- away. I ended up not staying at thr property. Dirty and unsanitary.”
+Nothing. The place is filthy! Ended up up not staying the night. The room was unsanitary
−Broken mirror, Dirty Carpet, Mold on the walls, oupib hair on the toilet; Hair on table on our arrival- table has seen better days around 20 years ago too. Old ugly and if youre into this sort of thing, the "fresh" sheets were also dirty... Dont believe my word for it. Check out the pictures.

“Good price per night, but very outdated.”
+Only 25min drive from the airport and plenty of parking space at a hotel. Decent price per night. Quiet location.
−Very outdated, seems like this hotel has been neglected by owners that don't want to spend any more money on updating it, so it feels like it's been stuck in time 20-30 years ago.

“Awful.”
−Turned up to no room - no communication - staff had locked room key inside the room so had to wait 50 minutes for assistance as no one answered the phone or came to help. I rang ahead and told staff I was arriving late they said it was fine, then turning up to no help or correspondence when having a locked room and no one to help.

−At 4:15 AM I had to leave... the key I was given had, and still has, an access code, and to my surprise I couldn't get in. I called the owner's contact number and sent a message, but no one replied. I slept in the car from 4:45 AM until I woke up at 8:30 AM. Meanwhile, I called again and someone at reception answered, explaining that the code wasn't working because it was broken. I ask, why didn't they fix it? I want half the amount I paid, or the full amount, refunded, as what happened to me is unacceptable.

“The airman hotel”
+The view out the bedroom window.
−The pillows were yellow and the mattress protector had yellow stains and so did the mattress and the actual fitted sheet The bath mat also had yellow stains The shower wall was still dirty and the window had black marks on it The toilet had faeces running down it still. The stains do not show well in pics but if you stay I'm sure your see them The staff were nice
