Spacious clean rooms and very friendly staff what else would one need?
Washrooms could use a vanity upgrade and maybe hooks for towels but otherwise fabulous hotel.

It was a good place to stay for proximity to the arena. Staff were lovely and helpful. Not in a brilliant area which is a shame but it suited our purpose.

The hotel is very clean well positioned for walking into town ,the food in the bistro is amazing .
The only downside was in the corridor outside the rooms there is a strong perfume smell ,not over coming but not really needed .
The bath is difficult to get into for a shower if you are older or not very tall

Our initial twin room was very small and smelt strongly of bleech on entering. The aircon unit did not work so asked to be moved. Were moved to a room with a balcony. The balcony was dirty but the room was much more of a standard that we would have expected in the first place. The room photos on expedia are very deceptive and are similar to the upgraded room we ended up in rather than the standard room we initially booked.

Located right by the train station, the property is very convient. The room was clean, comfortable, and modern. My only small complaint was that the fancy decorator light bulbs in the bedside lamps were not, for us, suitable for bedside use at all.

Hard to know what to say really the hotel is nice but the decor is a little over the top like someone went mad with the Wayfair catalogue! Our room was ok but not very clean, we had been left some 'gifts' in the toilet by the previous occupants also there was a wooden floor in the room which was covered in dust and fluff and needed a good mop.
