Underwhelming
Great location, friendly staff. Rooms were extremely small and not quite billed as spacious as website subjects. However, since we were just there for a place to sleep and shower, it was satisfactory.

Older hotel in great location
The negative: Mattress in my twin share was lumpy and there are some stairs to navigate with luggage (after getting off the lift onto your floor). Had to contact the front desk twice to remedy a minor issue. The person checking me in seemed scattered; she started helping a second person, and then a third—before she finished taking care of myself and the second person. The positive: Dining room staff, especially the person at the front podium, are very good. Food in the English breakfast buffet is kept stocked and there is a decent variety. Rooms are cleaned well on a daily basis, with attention to detail. The location on a quiet side street is excellent for accessing public transportation. Booking and modifying the reservation later were both very easy.

Two night, family stay
I stayed with my son for 2 nights, I had contacted the hotel on 2 occasions before our arrival and my question were answered promptly. I asked about dropping our luggage which they said was fine, on arrival our room was ready. I also requested a room not in the basement which was honoured. The room was in good condition and was clean. Hotel lobby was nice. Breakfast was good, could have more explanation of options. Someone on our 2nd morning had ordered fried eggs which were cooked on request. The tables are really close together which makes conversation difficult, ok for breakfast service. We ate in the evening one night, tables are not moved and only a small section is used, this did make you feel like you was imposing on the neighbours conversations. Service was not great, I asked for a glass of water 3 times and the restaurant was not busy. The staff get distracted easily. Food was ok. Overall the hotel was good I would stay here again.
