It was OK. However the carpets are old and mouldy. Place could do with a facelift. Saving grace was the breakfast.

Need to do way better
walked-in and there was no one at the front desk, and eventually someone came and started to attend to something else and not attending to guest , eventually i got attended after 35 Minutes, then walked in to my room and all i could smell was wet carpet , huge wall crack on entrance wall, there are two couches and they havent been clean properly they even lost their original color, the bathroom floors where filthy, basin and taps had white waters marks, the handle on the bathroom door was loose and was about to fall. the bathroom wall tiles were fogy. and i was expecting the bed to be more comfortable than my own bed

I was very upset when I returned just before 3 on Wednesday to find my room unmade. This really place me in a very uncomfortable situation as I rushed to my Hotel for a SKYPE conference. I cannot contemplate the high cost of the Hotel and then getting back to an unmade bed. It place me in a very uncomfortable situation to be in the room while it was still cleaned.
My meeting with my international company was uncomfortable because of your bad service.
Your service manager did come to apologize but the damage was done and I just wanted to get out of your hotel and back in my own clean and kept home.
