The hotel is generally in a very poor state of repair. Wallpaper in the room was tattered, we had issues with running hot water, sound proofing and light proofing. The beds were generally comfy and the room was massive but they don't provide room service. Towels were changed everyday but the room was not cleaned even once during our stay. This was the worst holiday inn I've stayed in worldwide.
