Guests consistently describe the staff at this hotel in favorable terms. The service here certainly seems to be one of the plus points of the property - guests say the staff is friendly, helpful, and, in many cases, the reason they would return to this hotel for a repeat visit.
Negative Reviews
negative:
No microwaves/fridges in standard rooms
Previous guests have sometimes found the lack of microwaves and fridges in the rooms as a little inconvenient. Storing and preparing food in your room is pretty much out of the question. That said, these facilities are available in a small number of upgraded rooms but you will pay a higher rate for these.
negative:
Wi-Fi may disappoint
There appear to be occasional Wi-Fi problems at this hotel, with some guests describing the connection as erratic and prone to dropping out. Although not all guests have been affected, this is a potential source of frustration for business and leisure guests alike.
negative:
Breakfast won't suit everyone
Feedback about the breakfast here is a little mixed. Some guests were perfectly happy with the spread while others felt breakfast should offer a greater variety of items. Also, breakfast started too late for some guests, so those who had to leave early sometimes missed out.
