Room was clean and large, very accommodating for 3 individuals like us. Bathroom was clean with clean towels. The AC was quite loud at night, but we head earplugs to sort it out. Breakfast offered a wide variety to choose from, very happy overall!
Ventilation system was quite loud at night.

Excellent location, spacious rooms and friendly staff. The breakfast is immaculate and I would definitely recommend having it.

Location amazing, room was a great size. Didn't need to see staff much but when we did, all lovely

The room was clean and spacious. We were given a top floor room so we had nice views and it was quiet. Comfy beds. Good breakfast. You can order some al a carte choices, as part of breakfast. Hotel messaged to confirm on my request for a cot. Staff friendly and helpful. Good breakfast. Stylish hotel in the center of town.

The room was spacious with nice designs and colors The breakfast was also delicious Location was great
The staff were not helpful they would not help us carry our luggage up to the room or down or up the stairs. Even when we ask them to do so. The room is noisy. You could hear either the people next to your room or on the street.

Very Poor
The reception is nicely decorated and the staff were friendlly too.
1. The bed had stains on them - looked like old blood stains. 2. No batteries in the TV remote. 3. 3 of the plugs in the room didn't work 4. The bathroom didnt have any sinks in. 5. Room massively doesnt fit in with the reception - awful furniture and decoration in the room absolutely NOT worth the money

I had a room that if you opened the curtains was just facing directly into a full office 10 yards across from my room... felt like I was an exhibit so I decided to shut the curtains vs being stared at. The room itself however is VERY dark with only warm lighting so it wasn't good for working in. Also the shower looks a lot nicer on their promotional material.
