Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of decent amenities and a somewhat tired atmosphere. While the room was clean and had basic comforts, it really needs a refurbishment. The staff were friendly and attentive despite being stretched thin. On the dining side, the buffet was simple but satisfying, and we enjoyed our evening thanks to a lively waitress. All in all, it’s not a luxury escape but offers good value for the price paid.
My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing overall. I encountered significant cleanliness issues which made it uncomfortable. While the staff was polite, the amenities and facilities left a lot to be desired, particularly the lack of free Wi-Fi. On the plus side, I did enjoy the spaciousness of the room and the decent breakfast options offered.
I had a really disappointing experience at this hotel, which claimed to offer a four-star experience. The room was in poor condition, with a musty smell, broken amenities, and it felt quite outdated. I was hopeful about the dining options but ended up frustrated with the limited choices. The workout facilities were decent, but overall, I felt that the hotel lacked basic upkeep and customer service. Definitely not worth the price paid.
Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was very disappointing. The room I received was dated and not well-maintained, while the cleanliness overall left much to be desired. It's clear that this hotel is undergoing renovations, but the lack of communication at check-in about the ongoing work was frustrating. The dining experience was also underwhelming, especially the breakfast service which felt neglected and unappetizing. There were some positive aspects, such as the spaciousness of the bar area, but overall I cannot recommend this hotel based on my experience.
The hotel has a friendly atmosphere with polite staff, but it requires significant refurbishments. The cleanliness of the rooms was decent, yet the facilities felt outdated. Dining options were disappointing, with a limited menu, underscoring the need for improvements. The overall experience was overshadowed by maintenance issues, especially with Wi-Fi and air conditioning.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The check-in process was quick and efficient, but the hotel itself felt a bit shabby on the outside and inside. My room was clean, and the amenities were satisfactory, but the lack of proper toiletries was a letdown. Dinner was enjoyable, and the service from the staff was commendable. Overall, it's a good value option for a budget stay, but there are areas in need of improvement.
I found the hotel to be quite old and in need of some serious updates. While the staff was friendly and the breakfast was decent, my room was cramped and uncomfortable, and the leisure facilities were not enjoyable. The overall experience left much to be desired, particularly considering the price paid.
The hotel has a charming exterior and the rooms are clean, offering decent value for money. However, there are several shortcomings including dated amenities and limited dining options that made my stay less enjoyable. Overall, it feels like a hotel that hasn't quite moved with the times.
