Excellent location close to Westgate Station. Comfortable room which showed signs of recent refurb. Breakfast poor - limited choice and poor quality. HI Express have really gone downhill on this…. OK for a one night stay but otherwise we would be looking at other options.

Not rushing back

Room and bathroom were clean but settee broken and unusable, bed wasn’t very comfortable even with mattress cover you could feel where previous people had indented. Staff were friendly, but at breakfast if a table wasn’t occupied it was filled with plates, most food was empty and coffee choices reduced (machine broken) not enough staff to clean, replenish etc, it basically felt they hadn’t planned for number of guests.

Not a good stay

Stayed for one night. Car park was full so used the multi-storey nearby which didn’t offer overnight parking only full day. Bedroom curtains didn’t shut properly which allowed a lot of light in from 5am. The floor of nearby rooms creak very loudly which was annoying early in the morning as others were getting up. Bathroom was dirty, no plug in the plug hole & it didn’t drain properly. No hot water after 10 mins of running the shower. All I need from a one night stay is a quiet/dark room & a shower in the morning. Didn’t get either!
