Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, although in need of refurbishment, were spacious and provided a separate area for the kids. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to Leigh, our server, and the friendly staff at reception and in the bar. The location had its charm despite some untidiness nearby. Dining was below par with rushed service and poor-quality ingredients. Facilities were basic with room for improvement.
I found the hotel to be a cozy stay with exceptionally warm rooms. The cleanliness was top-notch, although the bathroom gave a hospital-like feel. The mattress was comfortable, but the pillows were a little too flat for my liking.
The hotel had some highs like good breakfast and friendly staff but also a downside with the heating not being on all night. The rooms, although old, were clean and comfortable, and the value for money was excellent considering the quality compared to higher-end chains.
My stay at the hotel was enjoyable overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and hardworking, especially during the busy breakfast period. The location was convenient for the attractions I wanted to visit, with free parking as a bonus.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience had its ups and downs but overall good. The location was ideal for my needs, and the facilities met my expectations.
