Past guest experiences and opinions

John

United Kingdom, December 2023

6.0/10

The hotel had some drawbacks with warm rooms and noisy plumbing, but it offered a small yet nice stay with minor inconveniences. The service wasn't overly welcoming but had practical elements like airport shuttle. However, the location was convenient with proximity to public transportation, even though the surroundings needed maintenance. The dining experience fell short with limited food choices. Overall, it's a mixed bag with room for improvement.

7.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was great with easy access to the city center, but the rooms were affected by the noise from roof extractor fans. The service was friendly and helpful, despite some lapses in good service. The dining was lacking in quality and variety, but the facility had some redeeming qualities.

Rooms

7.0

I stayed in a decent room on the second level above the entrance, but it was seriously warm due to the proximity to roof extractor fans.
