The location were super. The bus station were close and easy. I attend a gig at the Royal Concert Hall. It is across the road. Parking is nearby too. They reduce price upon validation at reception. Dinner was great in the hotel restaurant. Breakfast are fantastic. Staff in all areas were pleasant.
The room felt smaller than photos. The lift was not working. It was a nuisance. The shower were not of good quality. I burnt myself from hot to extreme! The air conditioning didn't work. The cleaning were poor. The check-in were late.

a decidedly average stay

small bathroom thin walls
the room felt cramped especially the bathroom. i could hear everything happening in the adjacent rooms. thin walls meant i was privy to my neighbor's questionable tv choices and late-night phone calls it was less than ideal for a peaceful night's sleep.
