Great location, friendly staff, clean and modern.
Charles, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Great location but disappointing stay overall

The location was excellent, and the breakfast was good enough. However, there was a strong odor coming from the bathroom, and despite raising the issue, nothing was done to resolve it. Unfortunately, this significantly impacted the experience for me and my family.

Good location
ASWATH, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good hotel located on a university campus. However, there is construction at the hotel and on the nearby road, so it can be noisy during the day. There’s no on site restaurant, and breakfast is a simple grab and go option.
TINGTING, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

not as bad as the reviews make out

I picked this hotel due to its proximity to my office.
I have to say I was put off by the bad reviews. But I thought I’d give it a try. It was surprisingly ok.
Good points - friendly enough staff, bed was comfortable, room was airy, breakfast was decent and plentiful.
Bad points - pillows were not great, breakfast area pretty rammed in the morning and chaotic, room decent but a little tired in places.
Overall I would stay again, as its pretty decent and a good base for a few days.
Ross, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff went out of their way to accommodate us and make us feel special. Service was exemplary.

Frustrating experience

The hotel was undergoing a major renovation, and while they informed us about this after we booked it, the inconvenience was greater than expected. They offered a discount upon our expressing our issues, which they later denied and I have yet to receive.
