The room they gave me had mold. The room it self was clean the sheets was clean and fixed neatly but the building needs updating. The elevator not working properly their was literally mold paint craving off the wall in the room. They're is legally only 1 entrance in the hotel. So if any case of emergency this would be a horrible outcome. The workers was all nice and professional. They made the stay comfortable to tolerate. I don't know if the floor i was on was the only floor that had this problem but the owners need to go and visit their property.

Breakfast was good. Breakfast staff was very welcoming. Eating Area was clean. Bathroom was a bit outdated but fine. Bedroom door and bathroom door were a bit troublesome as when the bathroom door opened up, it would not allow our bedroom door to open if we wanted to leave our bedroom door. Thank goodness it was one of us trying to exit our bedroom. Elevators could be cleaner.

Pools were great. Breakfast was great. I only have a couple of complaints - the gym temperature was typically quite warm, so increased air conditioning would make it much better. The water fountain water was even warm. And the televisions had very limited channels and were incorrectly labelled on the tv.

It is a below avg place. It has 2 elevators of which one was broken whole 5 days i was stayed. Then 2nd one also broke for couple of hours which made it horrible. In between water line was broken for few hours on one day. it was much below my expectation. Disappointing. IHG group hotels are getting worse!
