Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable, but unfortunately, my view was of a dirty grey wall, not the river and city view I had hoped for. The staff were nice, tidy, and clean, but the street noise due to poor windows and cold temperatures were a downside.
The hotel has a fantastic location, close to town with friendly staff. However, the room was a bit smelly from smoking, and the noise from other guests was bothersome at times. The dining experience was standard and a bit overpriced, but the facilities were enjoyable overall.
The hotel had mixed feelings with a nice location but disappointing room cleanliness. The staff was friendly and helpful, but there were issues with noise disturbance. The dining options were pleasant, and the facilities were decent.
