Good location, spacious clean room, good extensive breakfast

Rob

The staff was apologetic and switched my room at once. A duty manager came to my original room to investigate, and he said he had never seen this happened before, but he apologized profusely, and offered assistance to get my luggage transferred to the new room. Once settled in the new room, everything was fine. No other issues. Breakfast buffet was of a good and expansive selection.

The room was a little small considering it cost us 160 euro, it went cold quickly, there was only a light duvet on the beds and no spare ones, the heating was a little noisy to leave on all night.
It was surprisingly quiet, no road noise considering it was on road side. very clean and modern, friendly atmosphere. Staff were professional and friendly. Beds really comfortable. The breakfast was lovely, plenty of choice.

“Terrible Experience In A Crumbling Hotel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Avoid the 5th floor, the room we were given was damp and cold and had a horrible smell, the bed clothes also felt damp, we were moved to another room that resembled something from the 70s and had a disgraceful bathroom with grout in most corners and no hot water. The place has turned into a massive tourist trap, it may look pretty on the outside and in the foyer but it hides a hotel that is falling apart when you venture deeper, how it is deemed a 4* hotel is beyond belief, two far nicer and modern hotels a minute up the road. Room pictures seem to be quite misleading as well.
The staff were pleasant and polite and did the best with what they could, you would feel sorry for them as they had a queue longer of people complaining than checking in at one point.

“Thank you! A couple of points...”
- • Leisure trip
- • Travelers with friends
- • Stayed 2 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The only negative points I have are very minor and can be ignored: 1. My shower was so powerful and fantastic until I realised it was constantly going from very hot to very cold so I couldn’t have a comfortable shower :(. 2. The hotel had said they would leave us a birthday plate in the room but left us a honeymoon plate instead. Also there was an old lady staying here who was horrible to my friend and me for no apparent reason. Obviously the staff cannot read minds to find out what their guests are like so I don’t blame the hotel!
In my opinion the staff is a huge asset to this hotel. The staff were extremely friendly, and helpful. The most positive points from my stay: 1. The housekeeping/cleaners do a very good job and cleaning standards meet my expectations. They are also really friendly. The reception staff was polite. The other staff was pretty efficient and friendly. 2. Breakfast is well presented with loads of choice. 3. The rooms are comfortable! The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are well equipped with a safe and hairdryer. 4. Downstairs lobby - this is airy, spacious and gorgeous without being pretentious. The bar is so comfortable to relax in, as well as the lobby area.
