Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very noisy hotel at night with revellers drinking in the bar. Some come in from outside the hotel. Loud banging sound on guests door late in the night. Felt very unsafe. Breakfast is abysmal. And the cleaners stole my perfume too so one wouldnt leave any personal items in the open. Why would i be forced to move aroumd with my personal items for fear of being stolen? I would strongly not recommend this hotel to anyone. Food was cheap tho. And some members of staff are okay but not all especially the Chef and cleaners.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Hotel was in the heart of the City. Nice place with good view. But Dirty cleaners were not doing a good job in terms of cleaning. Staffs need to learn about customer service. They need to be friendly and kind. No hot water in the hotel even if I called and asked if they had hot water. Door nob and sink into the toilet was full of dust. Toilet were not cleaned properly.
