Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
2 men decided to burst into the room. A woman alone in the room and they burst in there shouting, screaming and aggressive, they then blocked the door that is open 24/7. Extremely unsafe and frightening experience. The emergency phone numbers to contact staff there are not used as they don’t pick up the calls. This hotel should be shut down!

Limited parking - nearest car park 5 minute walk

I couldn't park which was a hassle, I had to park around 5 - 10 minutes away. There is limited parking which is great if you arrive early. The hotel itself was comfortable and ideal for my business trip. Staff were friendly and polite.
