The hotel is showing its age. The condition of the room was below my expectations. I have stayed at the QT a number of times before but not for a couple of years and there's been little investment in room upkeep and maintenance in the meantime. Quite disappointing

I stayed in the king room and informed staff that was with infant. Although the cot that provided was great, the rest of the room was not. while I understand hotels are not baby proofed, what I found in our room was shocking. A bag of malteasers had been split under the chair and on the balcony by previous guests and not cleaned up. I did not realize this until I noticed my baby choking on one. The second night I found 3 bottles of half emptied alcohol under the bed. also a risk

Food service was too long and our food was nearly taken by someone else as there is no system in place to get to the right person. And found it appalling that I had to pay for parking after paying 800.00 for a 3 night stay, I would not stay there again and would not recommend to friends or family your service desk staff are obviously in the wrong jobs as no smile or greeting on arrival or departure. The showers are full of mould needs to be cleaned properly by cleaner.
