Disliked: Cleanliness
I have never slept in more uncomfortable. Bed springs were popping constantly and you felt every single one of them neither my husband or I got any sleep at all. We booked it for two nights. We stayed one and we just left. We packed up and left. I have a bad back and for two days now it’s been hurting.
