Andrea

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This property is really in need of an update. You pay a "four star hotel" tax because the place has a restaurant and a pool. Then you go up one floor to the rooms and it's like you've gone back in time by 30 years. Filthy carpeting in the hallways, ripped up flooring in the rooms, no A/C, furniture straight from 1992. I couldn't leave my window open on a 90 degree day because I was on the 1st floor and people could just hop right in. The staff ignores you until you speak to them. And if you booked it because it said "parking" in the filter, they don't have any parking. You can unload your bags in the street out front. Other than that, the location is great!

Awful! Extremely poor internet, lumpy beds, run down, old old equipment in gym. The only positive thing about this hotel is that the breakfast was good. Lots of street noise and and horrible views. Very overpriced for this place .

Excellent Hotel with Large Rooms
I liked the big rooms with large bathrooms at this hotel. Good location in downtown area with easy walking to restaurants. Minor issue was the rooms didn't have individual controls for the room temperature.

Everything was fine except for the WiFi, which was so slow and disconnected so frequently that it was unusable. I couldn’t figure out how to turn down the heat. It was too warm for me and I had to sleep with the window open. I wasn’t the only room with the window swung wide open.

Great hotel with spa facilities
The hotel is amazing. Bed is fluffy and cosy. Room is 4*. There is good breakfast. The hotel has a pool, spa and sauna. Gym was not operational for some reason. The only negative is the early check out time at 10. If you arrive late there is not much time to enjoy the room during short stay.
