WELL LOCTED HOTEL IN DESPERATE NEED OF ATTENTION
The Bannister Hotel is in probably the best location in this part of the city when it comes to eateries, markets and entertainment, it is a very basic 3 star but more 2-star standard and not very well maintained and run. It is grubby in places and just not hygienic or clean and had some strange smells and air-con in rooms that is too warm and air-con in public areas that is freezing. Service is decent if slow. Bed comfort below average and awful very soft p[illows and a shower with plastic shower curtain.It is very noisy at night, but I can accept that and you must be prepared for it,so getting peaceful sleep if you a light sleeper may be an issue.
