Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a convenient location, but the rooms being furthest away from the lifts might not be ideal for guests with limited mobility. However, the rooms were larger than expected, really comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. The service was excellent, with staff going out of their way to be helpful. The location was fantastic for my needs and had a nice and friendly staff. The dining experience was generally good with a reasonable selection. The hotel facilities were well-kept and satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was well-appointed and had everything I needed, but it was a bit cold even with the air conditioner on, which was also noisy. The hotel was fully booked, leading to some inconveniences, and there were guests smoking on the top floor despite being advised against it. However, the service was excellent, with staff going above and beyond to ensure my comfort, and the location was very convenient for my journey. The dining experience had its highs and lows, and the facilities were decent overall.
The hotel is conveniently located and offers excellent service with friendly staff. The spacious and clean rooms designed for a wheelchair-bound individual were just what we needed after work. The dining experience could have been better with more variety, but overall, a great stay.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant surprise - the rooms have recently been upgraded with convenient electric sockets with USB points beside the beds and even come with a cozy sofa, all at a very competitive price. However, the room was not serviced during my stay, though we could easily get supplies like tea bags, which was a bit of a downside.
