          Fair value for money

          I always like to think of the amount I've paid when writing reviews. You can't expect a 5 star hotel at a 3 star price. The Frontier has always been good value for money. Yes, you can get something twice as good, but it'll be...More

          Faulty Towers!?

          This hotel is very old, fairly smelly due to all the moisture (climate & air/con). Rooms are fairly big, & the beds are somewhat comfy. The staff were ok & the food was average, but for the price it was definitely not worth it.

          Never again

          Not a good place needs a big upgrade, the rooms have mould and visible damp patches, the air con leaks and the bathrooms are dirty and mouldy. The food wasn't too bad tho, but the staff are not very helpful
