Good service, but old.

The hotel is nice and the service very good, but it is old and is showing it. The rooms are large but carpets and furniture are old and worn down. There were also small insects/cockroaches that sometimes appeared in the bathroom. The hotel has not thought about the environment - like delivering additional tubes of soap, shampoo and hand soap everyday even if the previous ones were still unused.

A very comfortable bed in an otherwise slightly dated decor in the rooms. Breakfast buffet whilst a wide variety was offered, was lacking in quality and taste. For a supposedly 4-5 star hotel, it couldn't offer better quality of tea bags? Don't get me started on those rickety dining chairs and tables on both mornings at breakfast........
