Reviews
The bathroom was smelly and dirty, shower room aswell, pieces missing from the ceiling, missing ornaments. The room dirty aswell lots of dust and allergens as in my nose and my partner was stuck every night, the beding very very dirty and full of hairs and when I say full of hairs I mean it ( probably they wash it in a hairdresser saloon) also we had a boiler in our cupboard:) and it was going on and on so the sleep wasn't so great ,I got sick after 2 days got the strongest flu ever. Then again I don't know how much money it costed for 7 days ,I don't know how much money went from TUI towards the hotel but TUI have some explaining to do! The breakfast was ...ok olives ,tomatoes, cucumber, cheese, lots of jam but no butter or margarine, tea , some instant coffee, juice but I don't recommend it and a cake sort of an angel cake. Friendly staff ,also no reception whatsoever.
