Fair.
Pros:

Check-in staff were great. Lobby is looking swish.

Cons:

Shower drained slowly and the bathroom smelled strongly of drain. One of the wall sockets by the desk was damaged. And, very importantly, HI used to have water and a KitKat in the mini-fridge but now the fridge isn't even turned on. Sad times.
