the location was very convenient. it was close to many attractions. the staff were also very helpful. they gave good advice about local places to eat. i got free drink coupons, and i thought the towel warmers were a nice luxury.
i found no plug-ins in the bathroom. it made using the hair dryer difficult. i asked why and was told it was a safety hazard. i feel this is an overreaction. my room was on the street side and i could hear people outside.

the location suited my needs well. it provided convenient access to restaurants.
i encountered some issues. the shower lacked basic products unless specifically requested, which i found inconvenient. furthermore, the television offered no functioning channels without requesting a wifi code from reception, not ideal.

spacious roomeffective air conditioninggood selectionpoor quality
i found my room spacious and clean. air conditioning was effective and i appreciate windows opened easily. the modern decor in public areas was bright and attractive. continental breakfast provided a good selection of cereals, fruit, yoghurt, and pastries i appreciate it.
the food lets this hotel down badly, vastly overpriced and poor quality. my husband had fish and chips, the fish was greasy with batter so soggy it was inedible. the chips were straight out of the freezer, i complain.
