We did not stay went to the room and it was absolutely filthy. Bugs all over the room and the floor clearly was not washed since the last guests left. Shower was dirty and fridge still had food spill from previous geusts inside. We left and found alternative accommodation as room was not fit for a stay. Very disappointed given the fee they charged.

Palapye getaway
Delayed checkin because of difficulty accessing online booking however hotel staff member was quite proactive and pleasant and kindly worked to resolve the matter.
Checked in on a Friday night with loud music from the chill session audible from my room till early hours of the morning.
Old carpet needs to go- during next scheduled refurbishment.
The beds were comfy though and staff was polite.
