One night only

Unfortunately the short stay we had at the hotel, for an early flight, was spoilt by other customers talking outside their rooms throughout the night amd the early morning. We also had McDonals and KFC food theown on the floor outside our door when we departed, with wrappers everywhere. Staff were friendly, rooms what you expect for the price, but the clientele Unfortunately spoilt any chance of sleep.
