The hotel is generally good although showing some wear and tear. Possibly the worst pillows, or perhaps lumps of something that used to be a pillow, ever. Wonderful concierge.

Hotel good. Facilities poor. Avoid the bar!!!
Lots of lifts out of order. Food in the bar took an hour to arrive then the chicken was dry (overcooked). Guess the ‘chef’ went for a break and forgot it. Then got charged for a double but asked for a single. BEWARE CHECK YOUR BAR BILL!!!
