Great hotel friendly staff but needs a little TLC.

On the positives, a nice large room with good bathroom. Nice breakfast choice, tasty and again, friendly and helpful staff. Able to order additional items such as omelettes but this was not mentioned and only knew as I saw staff walking out the kitchen with food orders. On the downside, the bathroom needed a bit of TLC, the toilet seat was loose and moved as one bolt was missing. The hot water is a manual system, you need to turn it on and wait some minutes to get hot. Not ideal if you are in a rush in the morning. So you leave it on all night, which is not ecofriendly. And when it was hot, the flow was much reduced to a slow trickle. The gym had lots of equipment, but lots of items not working. 3 of the 4 treadmills were out of order. Luckily when I went the one working was free. Also, no water machine or towles and only tissues avaialble to clean the equipment after. However, I got what I needed from it, as only user each time. On the last night the people in the adjacent room had a party that went on all night, full volume Indian tunes waking me at 1:30, 3 and then 5 but as I was going I let them get on with it. Not the hotels fault, but I wonder if anybody else complained and if so, what they would have done about it. Overall good stay, I would consider staying there again.
