We wanted a place to stay that was comfortable, but not upmarket. It was close to everything & suited our needs. It was clean, staff were friendly and we could cook meals when required. We were glad we chose The Met Hotel.

Dark entry point at rear of property, beside carpark, makes you very uncomfortable trying to enter at night. Photo of room on website, is nothing like actual room. This place surely does not meet fire safety code! Share kitchen was disgusting, lucky all my vacs are up to date!

It was difficult to get into the building, which was shut. A phone number was listed. The entrance was in a narrow lane with key safe boxes. The hotel itself was closed up and not operational. The bedrooms were clean and linen clean. The one common toilet and one common shower were dirty and unusable. What is on your website should be removed as it gives a bad name to you company. Someone should visit. I would recommend that you do not deal with this property. Thank you for the opportunity to share our experience

It was dingy, hard to find how to get in, I have photos of the grossest sink and bath I have ever used, I was next to the men’s toilet and bathroom which were used late and very early this morning so interrupting sleep. The woman who came to let me in was friendly. I didn’t check the ratings so I guess it’s my bad. I did try to find another hotel after I saw it but couldn’t find one.

It was an old hotel, but apart from one very large cockroach, it was very clean. You need to realise that these cockroaches fly in and the window was open. I would definitely stay there again during the Carnival of Flowers. For just an overnight stay it was fine.
