Never Again

Very disappointed with this hotel. The bed linen needs a serious upgrade. The hotel is advertised as having a Bar. It does not have a Bar. The choice of breakfast is very limited. It does not offer continental breakfast. In general the hotel needs to be refurbished.

This hotel wasn't great, and I wouldn't choose to stay there again. The bathroom needs a lot of work, with mildew and loose taps. It was also very noisy with the road right outside. The breakfast was good though.

Bed is soft and warm, appears clean although we didn't do a hygienic check, we checked in after 8 pm and was the last one to check in and the receptionist waited till we arrived and was friendly. However, my recommendation is that if you have to park your car in their carpark it's better to arrive early as the last car parking space in the garage was super difficult to back into, it took me more than 15 mins to do so, and with help from my friends to move the garbage trunks so that I have enough room to back in. The one window in the room does not have a lock so someone can climb in through the window, so in order secure the window I had to implement a temporary shutter for the window. The amenities in the bathroom was basic but clean, for an overnight stay it was adequate. The breakfast was good with adequate amount of food, but the scramble egg with the smoke salmon was over cooked and rubbery. All in all the experience was average and my evaluation was a bit over priced.
