Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Anonymous Sat, 16 August 2025

very disappointing and very poor.

Liked: clean, dining staff were attentive and i succeeded in getting a car parking space. its proximity to train station and the bay was prime reason i chose this hotel. Breakfast was good.
Disliked: Our room, 417, had an intermitent noise of drip drip drip which caused us two sleepless nights. When i reported it, the reception chap simply apologised and offered no recompense. The bathroom sink couldn't be used properly because of a glass ledge above this sink preventing the sink's proper usage - very dangerous as one could easily bang your head on it when washing your face etc. Windows were closed and no AC. Also, the place is in dire need of refubishment to bring it into 21st century. Paint cracked and splitting with condensation in the bedroom window too. Threadbare carpeting on stair.
