Hotel good location for 2 night stay.
Pros:

Location of hotel.

Cons:

I booked this hotel as it was advertised on Booking.com as having parking. Once booked on the confirmation email it stated no pre book able parking spaces, had to see on the day and valet service only at £30 per day. I could have cancelled, but decided to find alternative parking and keep the hotel booking.

Would not recommend.
Pros:

Location is amazing, bed was reasonably comfortable.

Cons:

Staff were efficient but not friendly. Room was really hot , no air conditioning ( which is ok ) but windows hardly open, which resulted in s as very uncomfortable night.

Bedding was clean but the room / bathroom was grubby.

There were renovations which didn’t attract me but I only got the message telling me about it after it was too late to cancel ( just a bit cheeky ).
