Rat droppings scattered along the walkway to the room. Locked out of the room twice - once outside office hours - because of the “weather”… Continental breakfast included in room fee. No food in the bains (empty/clean) and no staff to speak to get breakfast. Ended up spending another $40 eating breakfast out.

Would not recommend this place at all! Black mould found in the room we paid for! It stunk and had cockroaches. We addressed it with management who also turned up filthy and stunk of nicotine which did not help the situation. Fearing the safety of my family I had to look elsewhere later in the evening. Management were not accommodating to providing us with other options for the night so we left! I would not recommend this place to anyone! Stay away! Bomb the place, for bugs and/or management.
