Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The location is good, but that's about all I can praise here. First, this is not a place you want to stay if you travel with significant luggage (given the labyrinthine and narrow hallways) - but that was not the issue for me. Rather, the room environment was not comfortable as the room thermostat had no effect despite being on and claiming to register my setting changes. (And who has decided that a single heavy bed cover is good, rather than multiple layers of bedsheets?) But the main issue was that the noise was awful. It was not the people in the pub below that were the problem, but rather the constant slamming of doors somewhere below on the ground floor - slamming which went on till after 1am. Hotel staff also rather uninterested that you are there. I can not recommend this place, especially at the price charged.
