Pros:

Room was clean and comfortable

Cons:

Air con wasnt great and we were a bit warm and stuffy unless we opened the balcony door. A small toothpaste would have been good instead of a sewing kit!

Nice but could have been a lot better based on our previous stays unfortunately!
Pros:

Great location as we knew having stayed a few times previously. Hotel was clean as were the rooms. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Disappointing that there is no longer complimentary tea/coffee in the rooms! Facilities are there but you have to purchase the water to make your tea/coffee. It may seem trivial but that’s the difference between a hotel and a good hotel.

Other than the above the hotel was very well situated and clean. I had two very enjoyable Mel’s there
Pros:

The location was brilliant

Cons:

The air conditioning units were outside my hotel room 385 and the noise from them made it very hard to sleep at night. I opted for the sustainable choice of not having my room refreshed. My room notice advised me that this would achieve a reduction in my bill however this proved no to be the case
