Breakfast receives mixed reviews.
Guests staying at the hotel are entitled to a complimentary breakfast each morning of their stay. Whilst some guests are pleased with the breakfast served, others are less favourable, reporting that the quality of food could be improved upon, while portion sizes can be on the small side.

Hotel bar can make it tough to sleep.
The hotel features its own
bar, a detail that proves popular with those guests that enjoy a nightcap.
However, the bar can be a little too lively for some. A number of guests have
reported loud music blaring from the bar until the early hours of the morning,
making it difficult to sleep at night.
