Categories

Cleanliness
8.1
Mixed signals: many guests report rooms as very clean, but several mention issues (dirty bathtub, 'room could have been cleaner', shampoo bottle problem), so slightly below top-tier standard.
Service
9.5
Strongly positive: multiple comments praise friendly, helpful staff (named staff like Laurie and Ash singled out); a few service lapses noted (limited help with a Booking.com issue) but overall service is a standout.
Location
8.8
Generally positive: many guests cite convenient/great location and closeness to destinations, though a couple found the area somewhat industrial.
Room Quality
8.2
Mostly good: several guests describe rooms as modern, comfortable and well kept; some negatives (jacuzzi jets not working, wrong bed assigned, fan unable to be shut off, occasional bathtub dirt) reduce the score slightly.
Amenities
7.6
Below target: breakfast is excellent (see Food and Beverage) but there are amenity issues — broken jacuzzi jets, minimal gym equipment, shampoo/labeling problems, and TV guide/friction — leading to a weaker score.
Value for Money
8.2
Mixed perceptions: several guests find pricing reasonable/well priced, others note it can be pricey or that paid amenities (e.g., jacuzzi) didn't work, so value is slightly above average but not exemplary.
Food and Beverage
9.4
Very strong: numerous enthusiastic mentions of the breakfast (called excellent and 'the best I've ever had') and praise for the breakfast staff/manager (Laurie).
Overall Experience
9
Positive overall: many guests report they would stay again and describe wonderful or good stays; isolated booking or 'bare bones' complaints temper an otherwise very favorable experience.

Never book with Booking.com
Pros:

Location

Cons:

We paid for a room with 2 double beds. We received a room with one double bed. When I tried to call Booking.com I was only able to communicate with an AI computer that was absolutely useless. Hotel was of no help and my issue was not their concern. I has to find last minute alternative accommodations.
