Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although a bit dated and noisy due to the air conditioning, are still decent with comfortable beds and bathrooms, albeit showing signs of wear. The warm temperatures despite opened windows were a downside, especially at night. The service was friendly and efficient, except for the early checkout reminder. The location was convenient for various travel destinations and events like a baptism, but some noise disruptions were noted. The facilities were not extensively commented on.
The hotel had very spacious rooms, good breakfast included, and nice gym facilities, but the rooms were dated, small, and had a sloping floor, which was unpleasant. The service was generally pleasant and helpful, except for issues with getting a second key. The location was convenient for attending events at the nearby church, but some aspects need updating. The dining experience was passable, with some rudeness noted. The facilities were well-equipped and enjoyable overall.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great, right in the heart of town, but the room was disappointing with old furniture and a lack of maintenance. The service, especially from the bar and reception staff, was top-notch, but the breakfast left much to be desired.
The hotel has a great central location, perfect for exploring the city, with plenty of parking available. The rooms are in need of refurbishment and maintenance, but the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The dining experience is a bit pricey, but the local food offered is lovely.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but could do with a refresh and were quite noisy. The service was top-notch with very friendly staff, a nice bar, and great food. The location was convenient, being very central with a good bar and restaurant attached. However, the dining experience had its shortcomings. Overall, it was a decent stay with some areas that could be improved.
