3/5 Okay

Traveled with group, Traveled with partner
Liked: Staff & service
The room we were initially given didn't feel very fresh and smelled musty. The faux leather headboard was peeling away. Once we complained we were moved to another room which was much better. The location is excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful. I am gluten intolerant and I liked that a toaster was provided exclusively for gluten free bread. Breakfast was ok. Overall, I'd say the hotel is a little tired looking and due a face lift but the bed was comfortable (slightly odd that there was no fitted sheet - just a flat sheet laying over the top of a non-fitted mattress protector so the mattress kept showing as everything kept slipping down - wouldn't have thought that hygenic) and the bathroom was clean.

Great Hotel and amazing location, only dissatisfaction was the service which was very average due to the inexperienced staff and the number of staff on at the time. Other than that, the hotel is highly recommended
