I will start with the nice parts. Reception was so warm, welcoming and friendly, recognized me everytime, very prompt with dealing with issues and generally made the stay a cheerful one. Allowed me store bags both pre check-in and post check-out. The sheets clean and fresh. Free breakfast inclided. The hotel is very centrally located right in downtown and very easily accessible to anywhere by public transport.
The not so good parts are that the hotel is old and fixtures are quite out of date. The lift is jerky. I was surprised to see the bathtub in the bathroom which didn't have an extractor fan. Also the room was dark even with all the lighting on. There was a damp smell in the room. The breakfast was disappointing as I expected to see hot and savoury food like fried /scrambled eggs, bacon, omelettes etc but it was mostly pastry, yoghurt, cereal, tea/coffee and juice.
Very impressively, when I reviewed my check-in and mentioned the damp smell, this was very promptly attended to and an air purifier brought to my room.
Alshough this stay wasnt 100% for me, due to the location and the very cheerful front desk, ill stay again.
