Great stay
Pros:

The only fault I can pick was the bed was too hard for me personally but I was given a thick quilt which I folded in half to lie on and that sorted the problem. Area was great. Breakfast was good and had vegan sausages on request, even had vegan yoghurt.

Cons:

Having to pay for parking, though was discounted rate.

Could do with decent aircon

Lovely room, great staff, amazing view but difficult for a disabled guest.
Pros:

Friendly, clean and welcoming, lovely place to stay

Cons:

I didn’t like the fact that the king accessible room was on the 16th floor, had there been an emergency and lifts were out of order I would not be able to get down due to mobility issues. So I don’t think that’s very practical. I also didn’t like the fact that the car park that had there discount was not the one in front of the hotel, as a disabled person, having to go to the multi storey, unload everything including my mobility scooter and then carry my luggage to the hotel was difficult and inconvenient, and then having to do the same when we left. It’s not very disabled friendly.

Topp beliggenhet, men spis frokost et annet sted
Pros:

Beliggenhet og ok rom

Cons:

Frokosten, hadde tenkt å kjøpe denne hver dag, men det ble kun den første dagen. Utvalget var ok hvis det hadde vært smakfullt, men det var lite smak, varm mat var lunken, seigt og trist bacon, smakløs eggerøre…
Ubehagelig varmt og utrivelig lokale, innerst i en gang, virket bortgjemt
