Acceptable stay

polite stafffriendly servicetoilet plumbing
Staff at reception, bar, and restaurant acted polite. They showed a willingness to help with any issue. I liked that service felt friendly.
It only fit two people at once. I found plumbing needed improvements. The en-suite toilet required three flushes to work.

Decent Hotel. Some Issues Need Addressing

disorganized breakfast
The indoor swimming pool was a disappointment. Tiles were cracked, and some looked quite dirty. It seemed poorly maintained. the breakfast service was disorganized. I waited an unreasonable amount of time to receive all components of my meal.

The staff was friendly! the pool area was clean. I found the tram stop just across the street very convenient. A day ticket cost only 10 pounds for two people.
The hallway to my room on the 4th floor had a musty smell. I was unable to open THE window in my room. it was unbearable.
