The first room we were offer smelt of someone smoking ganja inside. We changed to another room, this had no smell and was basic. During the course of the evening, on about 3 occasions people tried the door to the room between say 02:45 - 03:20. There was lots of work going on in the building and I guess they are trying to improve the hotel.

The hotel is in need of a renovation, bathroom tiles off, toilet leaking. Our room was not serviced. There were no other facilities, food, drinks etc. The only positive thing was that the kind young man on reception went to a local shop for ice for our champagne.
