Pilgrim resting place

I enjoyed my stay in the hotel as they offered things such as a common room with a kitchen and laundry. The rooms are basic but one does not need much. Many pilgrims stay so the conversation is vibrant.

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent buffet breakfast and clean and spacious room. However step up to washroom was very dangerous and I tripped and fell during the night - needs to be made into a slope - also shower like an ice rink so had to use bath mat in order not to fall!
Verified review

2/10 Poor

I got bed bugs. So…. Yeah. Check the mattresses for rust coloured stains. If those are present, do not sleep there. When I contacted them to let them know I had woken up with an excess of bites (they ate me like a snack) … the property said “oh no, not again!!” The property itself… charming. It lost its charm once I got bed bugs though. The property did not offer any apology or gesture to make things right. I hope they cleaned… I was in a private room on the 2nd floor.
