mixed feelings about this stay
helpful staffold roomrun-down bathroom
The staff were VERY helpful. They assisted with bags and transport to the airport.
The room I got was NOT like the photos. It was old and run down, the bathroom especially. I even noticed what looked like cling film on the bed, maybe to prevent bed bugs, and I woke up with bites on my arm.
