The 3 elevators that take you to the rooms, only had one working. A bit annoying on a saturday when a fair few people were using it at the same time. Old building. Why is there a set of 2 lifts that go up to reception only (level 3) and another set of 3 lifts that take you to your room? The layout is not user friendly

room was nice and clean. working out the lights was a nightmare- god knows how the bedside lights work and you couldnt get the lamp to stay on with out the room lights so it was either pitch black in the room or bright light. rooom service phone line went unanswered multiple times, the air con was redicousley noisy when it reached temp and shut down - so much so that i had to wear earplugs. the plumbing from the room next door also excessivly noisy if they had an early shower. front desk staff were great and location is very good. 2/5

Location was perfect! So close to all the major shops, eateries and entertainment. Staff were extremely helpful, polite and responsive with requests. Room was very clean, amenities as they look in the pictures. The only change I would make is requesting a room no where near the elevators. Our room was directly across and I hear them go up and down all night. Other than that, great experience.

Arrived at the hotel late in the evening around 9:30pm and was told they had no rooms available. Dispite me having a confirmation email saying the room was booked. I was told 2 others were waiting for rooms and my response was don't I come first as I actually have a booking confirmation? The Duty Managers only response was I can cancel the booking for you and I said no I would like to just go to the room. Neither staff behind the counter bothered to assist and frankly looked as they didn't care that I was left without accommodation late at night in the city. Only advice given was to try booking somewhere else LWTF seriously poor customer service for a Gold Loyalty Member. Not impressed at all with the total lack of regard that I had no accommodation on my own late at night to roam the streets to find something. Seriously poor customer service..
