Catherine

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Disliked: Staff & service
Room was clean and comfortable. Hotel is a little far away from public transport options, when the weather is very hot. There seemed to be very minimal staff at the hotel, including during a fire alarm at 10pm, where the single staff member on duty asked me to manage other guests and stop them from re-entering the hotel while the alarms were going off. More staff, and more training on emergency protocols is needed here. This very obvious lack of staffing tainted what was otherwise a comfortable stay.
