We stayed in a ZIP Room for disabled facilities. No Drawers in the room Tiles in bathroom need a deep clean Room was not cleaned on one day of the four day stay King-size bed adequate Towels great Toiletries Fantastic Room needed to be a bit bigger as hard to get around in a wheelchair but not impossible. Could not get a coffee after 9 30 am or after 7 30 pm from restaurant even though we ate there the first night. Expected better from an ACCOR / Mercure facility.

Every staff member was so polite and professional. Rooms were very clean. The amenities and the little snacks they left were great. Most of all I loved that they had refillable water jugs and a water fountain on every level. I didn’t realise how much it makes a difference just to have access to a water fountain 24/7.

The front desk staff were shockingly bad. Rude, dismissive, and completely uninterested in helping. Simple questions were met with eye rolls, confusion, or outright attitude. It honestly felt like we were inconveniencing them by existing. No explanations, no apologies, no accountability — just excuses, indifference, and an alarming lack of professionalism. to make matters worse, the hotel has absolutely no active security whatsoever. The combination of no security and a front desk that clearly doesn’t care makes this place feel unsafe and poorly managed.

There was not enough parking spaces. As a woman on her own, I was asked to park over two blocks away and walk back alone at 1:30am - I felt scared to do that.
