Location of the hotel was fine as were the rooms but I found two of the female staff a bit miserable and not pleasant to deal with. The lamps in the rooms have USB ports but these did not work. When I asked for this issue to be rectified I was basically instructed to just go out and buy an adaptor. Personally speaking, if they’re in the hotel… Read more
Location of the hotel was fine as were the rooms but I found two of the female staff a bit miserable and not pleasant to deal with. The lamps in the rooms have USB ports but these did not work. When I asked for this issue to be rectified I was basically instructed to just go out and buy an adaptor. Personally speaking, if they’re in the hotel room and are faulty, I’d have thought it would be the hotels responsibility to rectify that issue. After all, if there was an issue with the shower, would I have been expected to phone the local plumber in order to purchase a replacement part? 2nd issue was when I asked at breakfast for more tea. I was told I was only allowed one cup. You’d have thought I was asking for an extra nights stay instead of a tea bag and some boiling water!!! A bit disappointing to say the least after I’d stayed there for 5 nights. Apart from that everything else was fine… Read less

Aug 4, 2025 Dreamer20392606957

The housekeeping lost my pair of pajamas that was on my bed...This is seriously ridiculous! And bad service from the concierge. The manager has no communication with the concierge at the lobby and she was absolutely clueless and asked me to email the manager myself. What a joke. Never going to be back again!
