This property is advertised as being for families yet it’s unsafe as the indoor door lock doesn’t lock properly and my 3 year old kept running out onto a busy carpark! Would not recommend. When I tried to resolve this with the hotel staff I was dismissed.
The room was stuffy, with carpets reeking of dust. If you're asthmatic, don't even consider booking. Don't be deceived by the beautiful photos online – they are far from the reality.
