It turned bad in the last day.
Pros:

The ambience and the finishings.

Cons:

We had an incident with one of the staff at breakfast which turned the whole experience sour. I just can’t get over it. It turned what could have been a great experience into a very sour experience.

Will never go back.
Pros:

The only thing this place has going for its self is the location and the design

Cons:

The staff are rude and not very welcoming. The first time we booked it was awful and then we decided to try again but nothing has changed. It’s like we are disturbing the staff by checking in. Then I must double pay for breakfast and the hotel responds by apologising and asking if I have any further questions I can reach out?? Why must I ask for a refund if I was over charged??? Is it not normal practice to refund someone you over charged?? When I checkout, no one greets they just stick their handout for the cards check the computer and say thanks. Disgusting behaviour
