The staff were excellent. They went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. The roof top deck was such a great space to have a drink on and to look at the views of the river. The pool with swings and a bar was a great place to hang out in to cool down on a hot day.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff are super helpful and friendly, the hotel is spotlessly clean. I really want to leave a good review as they are trying so hard, but there are shortcomings that could easily be addressed. The rooms are pretty basic and a couple of glasses, a hairdryer, extra towels etc would make a huge difference. Restaurant staff need proper training - they try very hard but seem unsure as to what they should be doing. They didn’t offer us the correct breakfast menu or explain options. There wasn’t much choice on the menu but food was ok.
