Perfect location to Cuba and Courtenay, all necessities met for an overnight stay. Spacious room. Can't complain about pokey bathroom considering all other locations were more expensive with a shared bathroom. Suited perfectly for a Sat night out on the town.

4/10 Poor

Woke up with a sore back. Noise from pipes/ motor made hard to get too sleep. Noise increased about 5am so was awake early. No where to sit nowhere to hang towels.
Adele, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The property is in a good central location. Check in process good. I booked for 2 nights but only stayed 1 as the noise from the other occupants was terrible... started about 8pm and continued on and off all night... swearing and playing loud music... then one male at 3am yelling and barking like a dog and yelling F**K the world etc. When i left early i told the man at reception that i was booked for 2 nights but leaving he said "ok" ... no asking why so thought I'd give my reasons here

Evie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Despite what others say about this property we did not have a negative experience. The staff were kind, they allowed us to check in early. Our room was tidy, the shower was nice. Only issue we faced was no windows. The beds were presented nicely and comfortable. The sink was clean. All around a nice cheap hotel.

Mehboob, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

It's okay for me
Kilifi, 6-night trip

2/10 Terrible

If you enjoy staying in a place where every piece of furniture in the room is broken, wondering what those splatters up the wall are and if they're related to the huge stain on the middle of the bed cover, spending the night with bed bugs, and the smell of sewage, this is the hotel for you. Any money saved on your accommodation budget will be spent on bed bug treatment and bite remedies - BE WARNED!!
Antoinette, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The property is very well Located but its dirty and a bit scary the first night i was ready to leave but ended up staying and i guess once you pass the first shock it ok, I would not stay again though My height is 1.63 and the shower its like for kids The bed also have bed bugs and the inside of the room are really scary like a horror movie is more an hostel than a hotel
Sol, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The worst accommodation I have ever stayed at. Hotel manager is unprofessional, rude, unhygienic, and a total scam artist
