Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was nice but quite tired, lovely bed and sofa, but floors were old, bathroom quite shabby witb lots of broken tiles and dated design. The shower gel and conditioner dispensers didnt work/ were empty but the shampoo worked. 2 light switches didnt work. The £2.50 water cartons were a con and with such a small sign it was easy to miss. The breakfast system is strange why not just do a continental buffet with hot food? Even if its hot to order it was nothing special so why pretend to be.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was very clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and efficient and the location of the hotel was excellent for walking around Canterbury. However, our room (215) looked out onto what looked like a junkyard next to a pub and we could hear a lot of noise from people standing outside the pub until very late at night.
