We had two rooms - in one the hot tap was full on fast-running all night, steamy windows! The second had a very hot radiator that couldn't be turned down or off. The energy bills must be enormous - I had to sleep on top of the bed (windows don't open). The bar was also too small and had a huge queue. And they overcharged me

Having an initial issue with our allocated room on arrival we were quickly moved to another without any fuss. All the staff were lovely and although there are some areas inside and outside the hotel in need of renovating/updating it did not bother us on a whole. But...Our major problem were the lifts, they were either out of order or took as long as almost 30mins for my partner to get in. We were on 5th floor and due to him having a history of heart attacks and COPD using the stairs was a definite no for him. One area that would benefit massively from updating
