Liked: Cleanliness
Very disappointing. Parking very scarce near reception and while searching, many one way alleys had us spending too much time just getting to check in. Then the guy on the counter also seemed to be reservations so we had to wait while he completed a demanding transaction on the phone. Finally got to drive into the car park, way after the 2 minutes allowed on the street-park. The car park door eventually opened after swiping the card many times. At room level, the place looked like a student block, scuff marks on some of the doors, a long walk to the room. The room itself was unusual but ok, lounge then kitchen then bathroom then bedroom arranged sequentially along an external window with excellent views of the neighbouring car park. Wherever we went, doors, lifts, whatever, there were 2 rfid pads, difficult to work out which one was correct, nothing clear. On exiting the car park on departure, problems again opening the door. A person who appeared to be a permanent guest helped us out by waving a remote at the door and advising we needed to be closer. Great tip! Other than that, it was a great location.

It was a very tidy room, in a good location ,the room is in need of abit of maintenance. However the floor we stayed on had a dreadful smell, it was so bad we blocked our nose from the elevator to our room. The pool had children doing swimming lessons and we were made to feel very uncomfortable as we kept getting glared at constantly for being in there.

Good hotel.

I only stayed for one night in this hotel but the experience is very good. Rooms are large and clean. All amenities are provided include a full kitchenette, ironing board and washer dryer. Location is good as it is near the docks. Check in is smooth and good. Will definitely consider this hotel if I am staying in the city.
