positive:
Convenient location
A walk through the park just opposite to hotel will take you into the city centre for shops and restaurants. If you like to walk most attractions are within walking distance or, if making the most of the free parking on-site, just five to ten-minute's drive.
positive:
Clean and fresh
All hotel guests know how important it is that rooms are clean, and guests here say that this is the case at this hotel. Rooms will be lovely and clean and tidy when you arrive, with fresh towels and bedding, and will be well looked after during your stay by the daily maid service.
positive:
Well-equipped for a comfortable stay
You will find that rooms are spacious and equipped with everything you need, such as iron and ironing board and facilities for making your morning cup of tea or coffee. The beds are warm and comfortable to sleep in.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Poor internet service
Some guests are disappointed that there is a daily limit to the Wi-Fi, and which they find too slow in any case. It is also frustrating to have to log in again whenever the device is turned off and signal strength is not consistent, dropping off regularly.
negative:
Some road noise may be heard
While some guests said that their rooms were nice and quiet, others were disturbed by noise from the road. Guests say that cars are racing away from the traffic lights and could hear this going on through the night.
negative:
It's a little bit tired
Guests have said that in general, this hotel is showing signs
of wear and tear. If there is one thing that is mentioned more than most, it is
the bathrooms which are said to be a little dated and have showers with a mind
of their own.
