Poor for a modern hotel - sort yourself out IHG
For a modern hotel rather poor All we could hear all night was water running down the stack… makes you want the loo In the room shower tray broken and full of hair so wouldn’t drain, toilet seat wouldn’t stay up Organisationally inept with complete mismanagement of breakfast - employee some staff, stick some signs up, resign the layout urgently and bin the wonky tables Whoever was responsible for designing it should be sacked

It’s in a Central location with dinning options and shopping in close proximity. The staff was wonderful and breakfast was very well done. Be aware that if you’re driving, the car park / Bus station a block away and charges per day for parking spots. (Which is fine, just an FYI)

Avoid the breakfast
Not awful, room was very nice. Was extremely diserpointed with the breakfast we turned up just after 6:30 which is the time breakfast starts and it was cold and rubbery. Honestly had stomach issues for the rest of the day.

Great location, near good restaurants. Staff was friendly. But they need to fix the drainage in the shower. It was the only thing that let the stay down, otherwise I recommend this hotel!
