On my arrival (Sunday 23 June) at nearly 8pm, the receptionist was extremely helpful, advising me of good places to eat, and recommended a very good pub with a good selection of ales, it made for a very pleasant evening. The welcome was very friendly and hospitable. Staff like her are an asset to a hotel. My bike was accommodated. It was a brief but very pleasant stay, and the breakfast buffet was excellent.

Staff and breakfast were very good. It was close to transportation and just a couple blocks from the water. Room was quiet.

We had a view of mechanical equipment and we were on the 4th floor. Rooms were pretty small, OK for 1-2 nites but no place to put much clothing. Bathroom also tight. If you are a large person, probably should upgrade to bigger room!

Good breakfast, usual spread of cheeses and meats. Plenty of space in the dining room and between tables. Lovely selection of breads, but missed soft-boiled eggs.

The bar could have been open longer hours

The location was ideal for me. Close to my work venue and bus station. The bed was super comfortable

As a British guest I would have liked a kettle in the room. The complimentary tea in reception was just tepid water and tea bag. Gave me milk but it was off and floated on the top.

Breakfast was great, room was lovely and clean and friendly staff.

I can't remember there being coffee making facilities in the room. I couldn't tell if the door was locked properly.

Location was perfect for us as we needed to be close for bus. Also good for exploring river area. Lots of places to eat nearby. Staff friendly and helpful, and packed an early breakfast, as we had to leave to catch bus. Comfortable beds

It was fine for the price, but just an ordinary hotel.

Centrally located, clean hotel with an amazing breakfast.

The view from the hotel room window was unfortunately just of pipework, so it felt like there wasn’t a window at all. However, the rest of the facilities were good :-)
