Staff have no information but only the manager can check which sad. ##### William Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### j, Gaborone Botswana 11 Jun 2018 #### OK but not wow! Reception wanted payment although it had been paid through Expedia - that issue was resolved very promptly by the manager. The amount they wanted was less than paid to Expedia. The 'garden view' was really a carpark view. The room was comfortable but several lights were not working and it was not as clean as it should be - cobwebs in the bathroom. The restaurant was adequate. ##### j Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### ricky 23 Aug 2017 Disliked: Staff & service #### it is close to town wifi was poor. sometime i couldn't connect wifi. especially our room has distance from reception. then signal was not strong. ##### ricky Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 13 May 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Comfortable stay in a quiet area. Other than encountering a little booking problem with the new reception staff, the stay was fine. The Indian curry dishes, nan and rice in the restaurant were great! ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Pauline 27 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Overnight stay Everything was available in the room, aircon, fridge and television. However, the finer details needing sorting out. One of the main lights did not work, there was no room to put items beside the bed on one side and the tap on the sink was very very loose! Bed very comfy. No where to put anything in the shower room either other than the floor. ##### Pauline ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Navona Grand Suite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rome-Hotels-Navona-Grand-Suite.h31872297.Hotel-Information) > > [Greywalls Hotel and Chez Roux](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Greywalls-Hotel-And-Chez-Roux.h3620007.Hotel-Information) > > [AluaSun Mediterráneo Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sant-Lluis-Hotels-AluaSun-Mediterraneo-Hotel.h2545057.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Rhyl](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhyl-Hotels.d6084734.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [MercerCollection Hotels in Southsea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Southsea-Portsmouth-Hotels-Mercer-Collection.0-n4773-0--bMercerCollection.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [CitizenMHotels Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-CitizenM-Hotels.0-0-d178279--bCitizenMHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Allan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stirling-Hotels-Allan-Park.h27925210.Hotel-Information) > > [46 North Road Studios Near QE and UOB](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-46-North-Road-Studios-Near-QE-And-UOB.h92547950.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Barcelona - Molins de Rei by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Barcelona-Molins-De-Rei.h1353878.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Guatemala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Guatemala.d71.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Travelodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gaborone-Hotels-Travelodge.h12064519.Hotel-Information) > > [COMO Uma Ubud](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ubud-Hotels-COMO-Uma-Ubud.h1322160.Hotel-Information) > > [Ditlhapi Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shakawe-Hotels-Ditlhapi-Guest-House.h16021933.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Epsom](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Epsom-Hotels.d182516.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Motels France](https://www.expedia.co.uk/France-Motels.d59-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) ### Flights > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Amsterdam (AMS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/ams/glasgow-to-amsterdam) > > [Flights from Seward to LON-All Airports](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/swd/lon/seward-to-london) > > [Flights from Paris (CDG) to La Rochelle (LRH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cdg/lrh/paris-to-la-rochelle) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Sydney (SYD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/syd/london-to-sydney) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Buenos Aires (EZE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/eze/london-to-buenos-aires) > > [Flights from Belfast (BHD) to Chek Lap Kok (HKG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhd/hkg/belfast-to-hong-kong) ### Cars > [Car hire in Dassia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Dassia.d6051724.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Calpe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Calpe.d6034540.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Garrucha Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Garrucha.d6133357.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Ponza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponza.dx182141)
