the staff were helpful. the breakfast staff were very attentive and chatty (which i enjoyed!). my superior double room was spacious with a view. the location is close to everything, so a car is not needed.
I found the service to be odd. the staff was efficient but cold. plastic flowers were throughout the hotel. I would rather have none at all. breakfast was basic with only serve yourself available. There was no option to order from a menu.

The room looked somewhat tired. i noticed plastic flowers throughout, which seemed cheap. i would have preferred no flowers at all. the breakfast was very basic, just a serve yourself buffet. I expected a menu to order from, considering the price.

The breakfast was quite nice. I suppose that's something.
The christmas dinner was a joke. Some kid in a kitchen could have done better. for the price, it was insulting. also, the breakfast buffet often ran out of food. The juice glasses were tiny.
