Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was ideal for me, the rooms were old and tired but surprisingly quiet, and the service was friendly although slow in the restaurant. The dining experience was a letdown compared to lunch and dinner. The facilities were adequate for my needs.
The hotel rooms are comfortable and decorated to a good standard. The evening entertainment was great, but the heating was a bit too hot. The service was helpful and friendly, although there were delays in refilling breakfast items. The location is ideal with upcoming refurbishments. The dining experience catered well for gluten-free requirements, but there were some struggles. The facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although small, were much nicer and cleaner despite being close to a radiator. However, the room had issues like mold, a musty smell, and dated decor, with visible damage from previous occupants. The service was commendable, especially the bar staff who were interactive and friendly, despite a generally quiet atmosphere. The location was convenient for various amenities but needed updating. The dining experience, particularly breakfast, fell short of expectations due to limited options and low food quality. Overall, a stay with ups and downs that affected the overall experience.
