Matthew

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The Hotel itself was very nice and the front desk staff and bartender were great. However, there are a couple issues with this place. First, the shower situation was not great. The water was either scalding hot or ice cold with some periods where it was just right. Did not make for an easy shower. Second, the hairdryer only worked for 2 min then stopped (wife not happy). Last the breakfast person was not welcoming at all and seemed extremely disgruntled. Not what you want first thing in the morning! Overall I probably would not stay at this place again unless they fix the shower situation. Oh and be warned the street noise is a bit much but expect for this area of town.

Nice hotel in a great location and convenient to attractions and train station. Very modern and clean room. Excellent breakfast. My only complaint is that there were gnats flying around in the dining room as well as my room and common area perhaps from the plants.
