the breakfast offered a nice selection of tasty options , and i found the team working there very attentive. i was allowed to check in early since they had a room available , which i appreciated after a long flight. the location was also very convenient , within walking distance of shops and docks.
the housekeeping supervisor entered my room without knocking , which was quite startling and unprofessional.

cramped breakfast areanoisy air conditioning
The breakfast area was too cramped (reminded me of a sardine in a can). It seemed they underestimated how many people would actually show up to eat. My room's air conditioning unit sounded like a jet engine trying to take off. I suspect there were better rooms, but mine suffered from this noise pollution. The staff didn't seem particularly concerned or equipped to address the noise issue when I mentioned it.

Central Location and Great Breakfast

central locationgreat breakfasttakeaway cups
The hotel is very close to the cathedral and the Chinese quarter (it is a short walk). Bold Street restaurants are also nearby. The breakfast was great, especially the Cumberland sausages. I appreciated the takeaway cups and bags available for breakfast items.
The heat in my room would not go lower than 16 degrees. It was too hot at night and there was no natural ventilation.
