When we arrived we were informed that we were 15mins early. That was not a nice welcome. We were directed to the lounge until a room was available. We observed room. Problems on the next day

A good stay, staff helpful and friendly, room was quiet and comfortable. The hotel could benefit from some updating, but I quite enjoyed the 80’s vibe. Would stay again.
