Had a fabulose and memerable stay
Pros:

A great short break, the rooms are very clean and well proportioned. Breakfast was very good espcially as its in the Penthose, fab views of the Hoe and Plymoth Sound. Ideally situated close to the town centre also for a greta walk along the Hoe and down into the Barbacan.

Cons:

The ubderground carpark can be a bit tight to navigate, wasn't built for mordern SUV's.

Could have been better and security needs to be improved
Pros:

Good location to theatre

Cons:

No security, doors from car park not locked easily accessible by anyone into hotel, also lifts can be accessed by anyone. Sat in bar Friday night a homeless man comes in asks to use toilet, told no, got very aggressive with barman who was on his own, the man was swearing and very aggressive eventually another man came out to help the barman but not before the man was threatening and shouting swear words, it was actually quite scary. On another note we found a week old sandwich in our fridge

adequate as i did not needhassle
Pros:

yes staff need training on how booking works
I stated i had breakfast included, they were adamant it stated not, i reluctanty shrugged shoulders as was tired and needed no justification, once a few moments wer chosen i checked knowing the reception was poor;y trained . I was indeed correct however its for booking to realise they have their own issues as demonstrated by my aliegence drifting excessively to company apps .. Booking has been a target from the hotels themselves , booking is now declining as loyalty chains offer far more.... I madfe a token gesture back to booking and lo and behold just weak oroicesses and shennanigans ,, The hotels in my opinion are targeting a change in direction .

Cons:

not alot its just the way it is

Cons:

The underground car park is very tight for large cars. It would be worth advising this before entering (smax). Road parking is similar price and there is an overflow carpark.
