The main benefit of the hotel is its location - a few minutes walk from the station through the shopping streets.
However, first impressions are poor - the outside approach of the hotel is filthy, cigarette buts all over the pavement and array of dead plants in containers.
The hotel appears to have been recently taken over although the street signage has not been changed from the Hotel Consul (this was well-communicated beforehand).
The rooms are old-fashioned and very badly designed. A half-used bottle of lotion was left in the bathroom from the previous occupant along with a USB charger and cable still plugged into the wall. Housekeeping is therefore poor. There are no bedside tables to put anything on and no easily accessible light either (nothing at all if you sleep on the left side of the bed!). For some inexplicable reason there are 2 fridges in the room taking up valuable space and many of the TV channels do not work.
Given the shiny new signage in reception, it is to be hoped that the whole place will undergo extensive renovations.
