The property is ok for what you pay, but be aware that a room on the front of the building facing the main road gets a lot of traffic noise, particularly at night. There is also an issue with the property only having two elevators (and one of those was not working on one of the days of our stay). The wait time was long and the lift very crowded as it stops at each floor. On a couple of occasions it was easier to take the stairs. Breakfast was ok, but not 4 star level. We had a meal from the restaurant as a take away in our room one night when we returned later and it was completely cold. Staff were great, no issues there.
