Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Its not somewhere i would recommend. The bathroom is something you would find in an old caravan, could hardly stand up straight in it, they sink basin is next to the bed. If you shower with the door open it will set off the fire alarm. The walls are paper thin, had to put the tv on to drown out the noise, you could hear next door simply cough. But the tv kept turning off so i didnt have a solid night sleep the whole 3 nights. They leave no glasses or drinking water in the room so you cant even have a drink of water. Its looks more of a hostel than a hotel and near nothing. The blankets are paper thin so prepare to freeze to death. Really not enjoyable place to be at. The cleaning staff we pretty friendly but the dude at the desk was pretty 'whatever." He wasnt rude but inwouldnt say he was friendly or inviting. I felt a bit tricked because it was an ibis hotel- but nothing like an ibis. Probably wouldnt be staying with ibis in the future.

Ibis was very convenient for what we were doing and cheap, so you get what you pay for and we were happy with that. Not happy with wotif, booked and paid for 2 rooms and when we arrived at 9:00pm at night with a car trailer there was only one room, the other room had not been confirmed between wotif and Ibis. No chance to go elsewhere! Now wotif is not responding to emails and no refund. Not very good service from wotif.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was clean. Very small for three adults. Third bed not made, no offer to make it for us when I asked for linen. Difficulty contacting reception when stated to be open. Welcome at check in very ordinary. Toilet door hits bed when opening. Squishy toilet and shower with sink to wash hands on other side of room. Hallways daggy, carpet frayed. Had to shuffle around each other to move around room. More like a hostel than what I would expect from an Ibis.
