We arrived to find the lift broken and our room on the 6th floor. The bedding configuration was not what we had requested and when we explained to the staff why we needed twin beds, they shrugged. Lift was eventually fixed and bedding provided for the sofa. The room was dated, ashtray on the terrrace was full. Convenient location

I spent very little time in the hotel. I basically only slept in it as was otherwise busy with work commitments in the city. The room was okay. A little dated and tired, a little grubby here and there but not dirty. Overall it was ideal for me to get my head down and expect nothing more. The room could do with a safe to secure valuables. Location is excellent though, 30 second walk to the cathedral square. Breakfast didn’t start until 8am, which was a shame as I had to leave the hotel prior to this both mornings.

The room is perfect for solo travel (double room could work for a couple) - I upgraded my room mid stay. My first room was a single room with a twin bed there was duct tape holding the toilet flusher on wall that was a first lol / my second room was a double bed and a floor up. I was curious - both rooms were very spacious and clean. No frills Hôtel , amazing for the cost and amazing location also amazing water pressure in showers. The front desk staff -Adam was very friendly and helpful!

The hotel is not new but our room had been redone and was perfectly fine. The rate is really good for the location. Obviously being close to the cathedral means front row seat for the bell ringing ;-). So if you enjoy a lie-in, it's probably better to choose an hotel further away. The area around the hotel is great, lively with lots of options to eat.

Adequate for a very short stay

Very dated and carpet was dirty. They supply slippers for your feet and they were much needed! The balcony flooded in the 2 nights we stayed there due to the rainy weather. Only one mug in the kitchen and not much else to eat off.. a few plates. One pan. Water tastes disgusting out of the tap but they had bottled water to use. Wasn’t sure if this was free or not. They need to make that clear. Not a great stay, but place was very spacious and was adequate for 2 nights. We did have the maid knocking on our door at 11:20 on the 2nd day asking us to leave because she needs to clean and check out was at 11:00. We told her we were booked in for 2 days and she just huffed at me and walked away. Very bad attitude. The receptionists were lovely though and apologised for the maids behaviour after I commented on what had happened that morning.

I honestly don't understand why the place doesn't have a better rating. The interior is kind of wierd, like a mix of different styles. But that's the only thing that can be noticed. The room and the bathroom are very big and clean. Amazing friendly and helpful stuff. Great location and amenities. Great water pressure. Comfortable bathroom with the space for all your things. The only thing that can be an issue is fridge. There is no one. But I want take any points for that because overall I was very satisfied.
