Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
On the left side of the bed there was an uncomfortable crease that made it nearly impossible to sleep. The staff asked us upon check-in if we’d been there before. We answered «no», then I was not given directions for the elevator, I had to ask how we got to our room. Only one pack of sugar free sweetener next to the kettle in our room. The breakfast was one of the highlights.

Nice hotel but always a little too warm!

I stay here quite regularly for work and usually dread the summer months as this hotel can be quite stuffy at night. Fortunately the weather was crap for my recent visit but it's still far to warm in the rooms for a good nights sleep. For info, the temperature controls do nothing - AC is turned off in all rooms. Aside from that, the hotel is a very good standard with clean rooms and good facilities (breakfast is excellent)
