A great hotel with the politest staff, in all areas, that I have ever encountered. Room comfortable, spacious and very clean. Good choice at breakfast. Only tiny criticism was the hot food was a little on the cold side but still very tasty. Highly recommend this hotel

It was a nice property overall but the room was very small for a family of 4...understand its an older hotel. No control over the thermostat as it did get quite warm in the room...I did try using it on the wall, however, nothing was happening. Very friendly staff and yes, we would stay there again.

There was confusion on arrival because they had no record of my booking the room for an extra night. Check in took a while and I'm not sure why they asked for the identity of my partner. There was no tea or coffee making facility in the room but this was rectified the second night on request.

If you need internet for work while at this hotel , forget about it. It is painfully slow. Google mail won’t open unless you refresh 5-10 times. Condition of the hotel - dated. Lots of marble, that probably was looking nice in the 70s. No A/C , so prepare to sleep with the windows open. If you do sleep with your windows open, the building near has big A/C units so you will hear that noise the entire night. Stains on the carpet, musty smell. I don’t know why this property is advertised as 4 stars. Should be 1 or 2.
