“Good hotel”

The hotel itself is quite dated but it is the staff which makes this a nice hotel to stay in. The front of house staff, room service and cleaners are friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is fantastic- right in the centre of town. The rooms are varied and I would advise to book a better room than the small double room. The gym could do with more weights equipment. Overall, we came for a programme and had a good time here.

“Good stay, price-quality is in order”

Asked for a quiet renovated room, got a view at the back, but not at hotel's fault really, but not soundproof, there is big gap under the front door, so when people talk loud in the corridor, you'd hear everything, even woke up in the middle of the night hearing people argue.

Asked for a quiet renovated room, got a view at the back, but not at hotel's fault really, but not soundproof, there is big gap under the front door, so when people talk loud in the corridor, you'd hear everything, even woke up in the middle of the night hearing people argue. Also woke up early, they have thick curtains, but they do let a lot of light through at the sides. The bathroom door is glass, so when you turn on the light, it could wake up your roommate. Aircon worked well, room was spacious, nice furniture and good size table to sit or even dine at. The bedside sweets and lavender was a nice touch. The waterboiler and coffee mugs had stains, the rest of the room was really clean, no dust at all. The brown carpet looks a bit old fashioned. I always find that the bedsheets in hotels rustle more than at home, but that could be me. We had 2 big single beds, but the matrasses didn't seem new, the middle was soft and the sides a bit harder, also creaky sounds when you sit on the bed (and we are small people). Pillows were soft, had 4 of them. We had a mini fridge with a safe on top, which makes the safe really warm, so be careful what you put inside. Big plus was the separate toilet, but it was really small and had no sink. The bathroom was nice, but you have to step into the bath to shower, it had a rainshower, the anti-slip rubber bathmat was a bit dirty, so we didn't use that, waterpressure is low. Dinner at the restaurant was nice, the staff is really friendly. Breakfast was good, all the basic choices of bread, cereal, even soymilk, fresh fruits, juices, yoghurts, crackers and pastries. There is an egg/omelet station with friendly staff, pancakes. The only thing that could be improved is to have an extra coffee/tea machine, as there was only 1 in the back and on the saturday morning there were constant queues. All in all I would recommend coming here as it is right in the centre of the city, you can walk everywhere.
