The hotel environment was generally acceptable, I encountered several issues that significantly affected my stay. Firstly, the hotel does not have air conditioning, which made it unbearably hot during the summer. Unfortunately, the hotel staff were unable to assist with this issue, making the stay quite uncomfortable. Additionally, there were problems with some of the room's amenities, including malfunctioning doors and light bulbs. Another concerning matter was the hotel's policy regarding holding money. Upon check-in, the hotel holds a certain amount of money, but the process of returning the deposit at check-out takes an excessively long time, which is quite inconvenient. Given these issues, I regret to say that I would not recommend this hotel

Experience from start to finish was not great, parking is very limited, hard to find and quite confusing. The room was like a super heated sauna, no air conditioning. We had to ask for an extra fan to get through the night. Can hear the trains even high up, didnt bother us though too much The bed was comfy however the bathroom smelt and didn’t feel very clean, especially the pink mould on the shower head. And the missing drain. The coffee/brunch place on the bottom floor looked really nice, and the surrounding area is lovely. Just a shame about the hotel!!!

What a shame, the hotel is in a great location but the condition is looking tired and not appealing at all. Rooms were falling apart. No utensils or anything in the room, including a remote to work the TV. Requested a remote and it was provided, but without any batteries in the remote so gave up and never got to watch TV. Limited bathroom supplies which is annoying since I travel light for work. All of the facilities mentioned on the website were not available so pointless suggested to prospective guests to take any form of swim wear. I would never stay at this hotel again.

Studio had kitchenette but no toaster,utensils, plates, dishes, glasses or pots and pans. No clothes hanger and hairdryer was missing, irioning board but no iron. Asked at reception and they sent someone up with hairdryer and cutlery and hangers but took a long time. Mattress protector was stained and filthy. Bathroom really small, toiletries the smallest shower gel, etc ive ever seen. Room very hot, opened window but then was very noisy. Went back yesterday 5th aug 2025 to check out 1 day early due to feeling unwell, luckily i was leaving bag packed as hotel was being evacuated due to fire. Had to haul luggage down 9 floors..alarms were not very obvious just saw lifts out of service, firemen scaling stairs shouting at us to get out. No one to take register, no one alerts you to fire drill etc on check in. No wonder no refunds, very disappointed.
