Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a great city center location, but the rooms were poorly maintained with dirty carpets, broken shower head, and loose fixings. The service was friendly, but unhelpful when issues arose. The dining experience was average. The hotel lacks central heating and has some cleanliness issues throughout.
The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, with shops nearby, but the rooms are in poor condition with cleanliness issues. The service was lacking with unresponsive staff and management. The dining options are limited, though the river-side location is a positive. Overall, not a great value for the money.
The hotel is not well-maintained, with dirty carpets, curtains, and windows, a broken shower head, and loose fixings. The staff was unhelpful in addressing the issues and the manager was unavailable when needed. On the positive side, the morning service for breakfast was friendly and efficient.
