Poor
The location was very central and the view was amazing
It was so noisy from the street below us that we got very little sleep; the phone and the tv did not work; there was no drinking water in the room; we paid $17.00 ( £10) for 2 small bottles of water;the pillows felt like rocks.

Our first room was too hot, but your employee Soloman solved the problem for us and was very very helpful.
Room 602 was TOO HOT, but when we returned you gave us another room which was great.

Very Good
Perfectly situated on a main route with easy access to transport
No proper wardrobe in the room. Didn't bother with breakfast as it was grossly over-priced (having stayed here before) Creaking floorboards both in room & in the corridors
