“Breakfast food good but noisy restaurant”

The breakfast buffet food is good. But the restaurant itself isn't great. They play soft rock and rap at quite loud volume. Who listens to that at home when they're having breakfast?

The breakfast buffet food is good. But the restaurant itself isn't great. They play soft rock and rap at quite loud volume. Who listens to that at home when they're having breakfast? So why do it here, its not a bar. And half the seating is couches up against dining tables. Again, have they actually tried to eat a meal at a table like that? When a family at a nearby table finished, I was the only diner left, at 7:45 am which should be peak time. Again the food is ok, there just aeems to be a lack of thought about what customers want.

“Really showing its age”

Hotel is old and is really showing its age! Lifts, rooms, bathrooms are functional but just very dated! Carpets in the room were in desperate need of a clean or even better being replaced. Bed was comfortable. A little out from the main centre and could be a little noisy.

“Good central location but tired and shabby rooms”

Room reasonably clean and OK to sleep in but tired and in definite need of a spruce up. Our room was on the 2nd floor so we suffered a bit of street noise especially at night - this might be less of a problem on a higher floor.

Room reasonably clean and OK to sleep in but tired and in definite need of a spruce up. Our room was on the 2nd floor so we suffered a bit of street noise especially at night - this might be less of a problem on a higher floor. A lot of noise in the corridor outside the room at night, so inadequate soundproofing. No nets behind curtains on the windows which meant occupants in the hotel opposite could see right in if we wanted some natural light by having the curtains open. The windows themselves were quite dirty. Disappointed that the TV in the room had only terrestrial channels, no Sky. Queen size bed was not really a queen at all but rather two single beds zipped together, which meant there was an annoying dip in the middle. No cutlery at all, and glasses provided were dirty. I suspect the single wine glass provided which I used on my first night and put out for washing was the same one provided the next day as I could still see the lipstick mark I left on it, so the glass was not washed properly. Nowhere to put wet towels so we left them in a heap on the bathroom floor which meant that they did get changed with fresh towels. I don't think I would stay here again.

Facilities are pretty tired. Bathrooms and bedroom need some maintenance and deep cleaning. The beds were comfortable & clean. We were ona higher floor so no problem with noise. Heat pump in room gave us good control of temperature. TV no problems. Bathroom, shower worked, clean towels each day because there’s nowhere to hang wet ones. Tiles cracked, carpets dirty, please just give it some care?
