Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The pictures advertised Dont reflect the actual waning condition of theHotel. It’s actually getting quite rundown. You are looking at the walls of other buildings. The windows aren’t double glazed and it is very noisy in the area particularly if the Regent theatre is packing up or setting up Outside your front door. On several occasions I wandered in and just waited around for quite some time for staff to show their head of which they’re only ever seem to be one.
The pictures show that there is a possibility of being a bar upstairs with the pool but this is not the case. In fact on your way up the stairs to the pool you have to squeeze around three buckets collecting water dripping from the ceiling. The pool is getting quite rusty And it is now hard to see through the bottom also due to lack of cleaning. Initially the furniture in the photos look interesting however in reality they are quite dinky and small and quite useless to be honest.
Unfortunately why we were there? The Internet wasn’t working and cell phone reception/data was a bit hit and miss. I assume everyone in the hotel was trying to use it which is why it was barely there.
The bar/restaurant downstairs was closed while we were there and there wasn’t much explanation for that.
The complementary drinks are pretty entry-level beer and champagne. Which have to be taken on one of you breakfast tables.
Beds no great. Location great! But paying too much for this room. Not a self rated 5 star.
