Disappointed

Hotels.com sold me a standard room with a free upgrade. I was given a basic room or could pay £60 per night for the free upgrade and was told they only have a few rooms they give free upgrades on. Eventually, the next day, got moved. However, the room then wasn’t serviced, I had to ask for some clean towels. The next day I was promised housekeeping but not till after lunch. At 4:30, still not done so had to have another conversation. Was very disappointed. Breakfast, cool instead of hot cooked breakfast, just in tin trays with no lids, the rest was bland. The coffee was ok. One of the bar staff was ok. One of the receptionists was ok. Location, in the middle of nowhere. The bathroom was tiny and would benefit from a refresh.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Oda genişliği ve teras manzarası olumlu özellikleriydi. Fakat olumsuz yönleri o kadar fazla ki berbat bir deneyim yaşadık. Odaya girdiğimiz gibi ağır bir koku bizi karşıladı. Banyoda bulunun yoğun idrar kokusu tüm odayı esir almıştı. Odada bulunan mobilyalar eski ve pisti. Pencerelerde sineklik olmadığı için odayı havalandırmak istediğimizde odayı sivri sinekler bastı. Klima sadece gürültü çıkarıyor ama asla serinletmiyordu. Konum olarak şehir merkezine ve metro hattına uzak. Otopark için ekstra ücret talep ediliyor ki bu çok saçma. Kahvaltı salonundaki tefrişat ürünleri ve diger ürünler de oda gibi eski ve pisti. Kahvaltı için yenilebilecek ürünler kalitesiz olsa da miktar yeterli.

Il soggiorno è stato piacevole, accoglienza e servizi ok. Credo non tornerò a mangiare nel ristorante per la scortesia dei camerieri. Specialmente un cameriere si è rivelato più volte scontroso e maleducato nei miei confronti, un peccato
