The staff were unremittingly cheerful and polite but over-burdened. If you needed attention at reception they were busy in the bar; if you needed help in your room they were busy in the restaurant. They had problems finding the form for help with evacuation in the event of a fire and they were unable to assist in its completion (It's an incomprehensible and useless form anyway.) When we arrived we couldn't turn on the TV; the next night we couldn't turn it off. We had a room for two but only one of us could sit down - it took two days before another chair was delivered. We were invited to save our towels but they were replaced anyway - but not precisely. We finished up with 4 hand towels and I bath towel. It's also a shame that you need to endure the traffic jams approaching the Tunnel before arriving at the hotel.

The carpet in the room is very filthy and one of the tea spoons had been used and not cleaned up. It was just placed back, which would have been obvious to anyone it was dirty. Overall, I was alright.

Although non smoking, there were cigarette fumes coming into our room late at night or early morning. Could also do with lighter weight bedding during hot sticky summer! Otherwise the staff were wonderful, the hotel is really good value for money and convenient, room was nicely cleaned and just an overall brilliant stay.

Staff attitudes were bad, breakfast cold (meant to be hot) air conditioning in bedroom not working properly and with not checking in early as they said I could I was late for a wedding. To me I am English and they wanted to serve everyone else before us, plus said room was unavailable due to cleaners but when we checked out at 9 this morning, cleaners were already cleaning rooms, so this was the probably the same as yesterday

The staff there was misleading and I was told a range of different things by staff regarding the late checkout. I have stayed before and everything was fine but I spoke to the manager on this occasion (zenit) and she handled things terribly

Parking fines when parking at this Hotel. Be aware of this hotel. I knew I had to pay for parking to stay overnight here, fair enough. I did not pay right away on check in but after I had took my luggage to my room and relaxed for like an hour. Unbeknown to me I was issued a £100 fine for this which sent to my house two weeks after my stay, on top of the £12 I had paid to actually park my car overnight. Nice one. Never stay here again.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful also I requested a room on the Ground Floor close to reception and I was given the first room number 19. The staff in restaurant were very informative and friendly. The only thing is I don’t think you should have to pay for parking when staying at the hotel.
