The room was clean but looked tired. Had a nice feel about the place. Found the staff very friendly and helpful. The shops are all nearby. The only downside was the lift was not working.

Looked nothing like the pictures at all. Dark and dingy. Families living in the rooms with toys and nappies all over the windowsill. No lights on at all. Smelt very bad. Couldn’t stay. We left within ten minutes. The room is completely different to the pictures

Hotel was fine but the hotel is house immigrant families and they was shouting all night, so when I have to get up early for work and get very little sleep becomes a problem.

I believe that the hotel should put some padding stickers on the door frames so the doors don’t bang when closing them.

Fallen glory

Don’t believe the website pictures, these were taken years ago. You can see this hotel was once a 4 star hotel, beautiful building and lovely period wood paneling in the reception. Sadly, the hotel now has a a lot of permanent residents, family in the common areas and toys lying around. The restaurant is closed and now and temporary kitchen, the place is dark and dingy, with smell of food and damp in the air. Having said that, we stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms, which was very nice and well appointed but it felt like walking through Pandoras closet!

It’s clean and the room was in good shape. Front desk person was nice helpful. That said, it looks like a lot of the rooms are longer-term rentals. There were several children playing in the parking lot and running around in the lobby area. I also saw toys in some of the ground floor windows, indicating that people were living there. While the room we stayed in looked recently updated, the lobby is pretty rundown. And the restaurant and lounge are closed (with refrigerators and microwaves in what I assume was previously the dining room—probably for the tenants). It’s too bad because it looked like it was a really cool hotel/tavern/restaurant at a previous point in the past. Not planning on ever being back in this area, but I wouldn’t stay here again.
