Suprise visit to see family
Was ok. You can see what they are trying to do with the upgrades but bathrooms were still to be done and bedroom smelled of smoke as the perspn before had been smoking. Ash all over the windowsill where they had been hanging out. Main part of the hotel was nice but might off been better to close and do the refurb rather than have people staying.

We were particularly disappointed with our room. The bathroom had cracked and broken tiles, towel rail torn from the wall, extract fan not working etc. The single beds were the smallest single beds I have ever experienced, dressing table was very badly stained, chair was covered in crumbs or particles of whatever, decor extremely poor, tv had only one channel we could access. For the costs charged we would have expected a much higher standard

4/10 Fair

Staying for 1 night was plenty. The rooms have been modernised 3 years ago, however, there has been large omissions such as basic bathroom amenities which are tired and damaged. The shower failed to work at all, and when it did kick in, was happy to cover everyones temperature zone ranging from ice cold to burn your face off hot, and it does this all by itself. And dont think that even though you are on the top of the building that you wont get to hear the party, the walls are paper thin and the party will leave you tired with a disturbed nights sleep on an aging mattress. Breakfast. Not enough tables made up. No one on hand to clear tables and prep for more. The chef decided to dissappear with absolutely no food left at the self service servery for guests arrivjng, and this was not even 0845 yet. The reception and bar staff were welcoming and happy to help out and the standards of hygeine were as should be expected. Location is great too. Just be open minded when booking, its a clean room for the night.

All great mostly
I did originally like the non carpet floors but found it very noisy in the corridors with people walking and doors banging. I could hear the music from last night but that was not an issue . A full mirror in the bedroom would have been nice. Unusual I thought not to have one. Everywhere nice and clean and everything me very friendly of course :)

Stayed at this hotel before over the years, room was lovely, paid for a deluxe, shower in the bathroom was a disgrace, hardly any pressure, you had to hold it, mentioned when checking out and they said were aware already!!! Breakfast was disappointing, cold food, cold plates, had to ask for bread for toast. Think it might be used at present for homeless. Receptionist was lovely and friendly. Foyer area has had a refurbish and very nice.
