Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were super clean and I loved the original brick walls and beams, but I had a small issue that needed fixing. The service was friendly overall, although I encountered some instances of rudeness that affected my experience. The location was convenient, with a charming pub nearby, even though I wished it was brighter in some areas. The dining experience was good but could have been better. The facilities met my expectations.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, with two beds and a pull-out sofa, but it felt unfinished. The service was excellent overall, with some staff being extremely accommodating and friendly, while others seemed indifferent. The location was not as convenient as I had hoped, being on the edge of a rougher part of town, but it had its charm. The dining options were good, with a nice selection, but some improvements could be made. Overall, it was a decent stay with room for improvement.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, while spacious, suffered from bright lights from the parking lot that made it hard to sleep. The service, especially from managers like Felicia and Ayanna, was warm and welcoming. The location was good but not in the downtown area, and the dining experience was a bit sub-standard.
