Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed one night. Would have stayed for two but for firstly when checking in the receptionist Alex or Alexandra just upped and left half way through booking us in as her shift ended with out a buy or leave. The other staff we had interaction with were very god. The Room was ok but not great for the price.breakfast was devastated by a team of professional rugby team,not much left although they did rally a bit. The hotel in general is a little tired and showing signs of neglect. We decided that one night was enough and moved on.

I booked for 2 twin beds when we arrived we had a double bed only. When we checked at reception it said we were not down for 2 singles. They managed to change our room but it didn’t seem to be as nice which was a huge shame. We asked about it in our original room, they said that the beds just pull apart, we were then told they couldn’t pull the beds apart as it was a double mattress. However it was all very clean and staff were friendly

Jeg synes ikke personalet var imødekommende da vi check’et ind. Gav sig ikke tid til den enkelte og det hele virket meget upersonligt. Værelset var rigtig fin størrelse og rent, men varmen virkede dårligt og underlige høje lyde, og fik ikke rengøring sidste dag.
