Extremely unhelpful desk clerk. Bedwas bunk bed type with springs very noisy. bed cover was stained. Bathroom had rust everywhere. I had a shower & left the hotel. Told the clerk he & the hotel were a complete waste of my time and money. Any positive reviews here are quite obviously fake !!!!

Parking was a nightmare, hardly any available and reservation lot was blocks away and hard to locate. No heat in the boilers, electric heater kept falling off the wall. Room was not cleaned, never given fresh coffee cups and had to ask for additional coffee. No shampoo available. Bathroom had big windows, glass was fuzzed but no covers. Windows all nailed shut so felt unsafe in case of fire. Just overall run down with poor service.

The hotel was very tired and dirty. There was damp in the bedroom, black mould in the bathroom and tiles coming off the wall. The blind didn’t shut properly and the toilet and sink were loose. I had more photos, but could only submit 8!

The staff was excellent. The location was quiet. Areas of interest were a quick cab ride away. I would definitely recommend to any traveller.

Single bed was tiny set in middle of room. Window wouldnt open and when opened has no stopper and it kept falling and closing and it was hot day. Very uncomfortable stay. Couldn’t sleep all night. Breakfast was terrible. No hot food just cold boiled eggs and cold cheese. Coffee was terrible. Waste of money
