Slow service at reception, overall the place seemed understaffed. Hard to find anyone to serve in the bar at lunchtime or evening. Breakfast was average, and the buffet not replenished quickly, we had to ask for several things which came slowly.
Room was comfortable and clean. Very hard pillows. Very central position , but difficult parking.

Lack of temperature control, the rooms were too hot even with windows open (if you could get them to open), but we paid 4 star money for 3 star standard. The place is a little tired and needs a makeover and the staff could do with extra training and improvement.
The breakfast and location were exceptional. The linen and bathrooms were very clean
