Good again

Like everything nowadays more expensive with less services. Over £100 a night and that doesn't include a parking space. Used to be a free coffee machine available all day but not anymore. Nice hotel though staff very pleasant but was invited to pay for my room a second time on arrival had to stand my ground and say id already paid

The beds were comfortable, excellent breakfast, nice staff. Unfortunately, the bathroom had a horrible odor. Wondering if it is a construction flaw- there’s no caulking in the floor tiles - and they get wet. Staff said they would send maintenance- but nothing changed. Had to keep bathroom door shut the entire time otherwise it was unbearable.

Everything about this was OK - did the job. However it was further out from the middle of town that we had thought and a walk to a bus stop down a bike path that we chose not to do in the dark coming back. Our room was too hot

OK rooms but tired and breakfast poor no coffee!

Generally OK, breakfast terrible. Both coffee machines were out of milk so was not able to get coffee, selection of food pretty poor, and the fruit was rank and clearly tinned. Beans were cold, cutlery and plates difficult to find clean ones! Bedroom clean but shower room tired cracked tiles, and mould on the thick silicone sealent, generally badly cheaply maintained.
