Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room service was lacking the staff would not provide clean mugs or refresh tea and coffee facilities, nor would they refresh the soap bar for handwashing. The rooms were not sound proof at all could hear people in the next room, could hear hallway conversations and the doors banging 5 doors down. The hotel does have free parking but the frer section is small and at the front of the hotel, the large side carpark is paid at โ‚ฌ10 a night. Beds are firm but comfortable. Did not use the pool so cannot comment. Overall a basic clean hotel but could do with some improvements.
