Disliked: Amenities
Built over a petrol station, overlooking a major road
no room service or restaurant after 2030
area around hotel isn’t nice, not worthy of carrying 4 stars
The location of the hotel was rather perilous and inconvenient. It is right next to a next station and 15 min walk from the center of town. Otherwise, the room looks recently updated, the beds were firm n comfortable, good water pressure.
Over all good. We did wait a long time for desert as a bus arrived for a meal, the restaurant was under staffed.
Gym facilities very poor.
Food was delicious and good portions. Room was good and staff extremely friendly.
Would return.
