Convenient City Stay

the hotel's location is excellent for reaching the city center easily. i appreciated the availability of car parking on site. the room was clean and quite spacious.
the in-room air cooling system seemed to struggle a little to keep the room completely cool when the weather was warmer.

Acceptable Stay with Parking Issues

friendly staffparking issuescheckout model
The staff were friendly and provided everything I needed.
The parking situation was quite annoying because I had to pay each time I left the car park. I felt I should have the flexibility to decide when to take my car out without needing to explain my plans. The hotel should adopt a system where you pay once at checkout like other dual hotel and car park setups.

the location was acceptable because it was close to the train station.
The room felt dated, and there was a noticeable stain on the wardrobe. the tv remote was sticky. It looked like dried chocolate was on it. the carpets seemed worn and needed a deep clean. I felt the room lacked basic hygiene.
