mixed feelings about this stay

polite staffunresponsive remoteweak shower pressure
the staff was polite enough, they didnt ignore me.
My room, a standard double room, reminded me of it was missing something, maybe charm. the tv remote was about as responsive as a sleepy sloth. I had to practically stand on my head to change channels. and then, just to add a cherry on top, the shower pressure was so weak, it reminded me of a gentle drizzle more than an actual shower. it wasn't the end of the world, but it definitely wasn't the highlight of my stay.

Solid Hotel with Good Amenities

large tvcomplimentary refreshmentsloyalty program
Check-in was seamless and efficient. I got upgraded to an Executive Double Room after joining their loyalty program, a pleasant surprise. The room had a large TV and complimentary refreshments (tea and coffee), which I found very useful.
The shower only had hot water. The temperature could not be adjusted to cold. the room was quite cold during the night and I could not switch the AC off.

The refurbished rooms are excellent, offering a modern feel and comfortable space. My Executive Double Room had good shower facilities and a large, modern television set (which I enjoyed).

The hotel's restaurant is convenient for dinner after a long day. There is fairly secure parking available. It has a charge of £10 (it is a bit too high for my taste).

The bed was super comfy, a welcome relief after my travels.
The air conditioning did not work effectively. A fan was in the room, it blew hot air. The room became like a sauna, and sleep was difficult.
