The room was very damp. It smelt awful and the dehumidifier was full of water. Majority of the female showers were out of order for the duration and the ones that did work definitely needed maintenance and cleaning… Reception staff were lovely but management did not seem interesting in actioning the issues. Also if you’re staying there for a quiet night sleep make sure you’re not in a room facing the bar.
