Dated and not soundproofed, but clean and comfortable, with friendly staff. Not ideal for a business trip, as “desk” area waa only equipped with a stool rather than a chair. Had a virtual meeting with laptop on top of shoebox, on top of coffee table, so i could sit in one of the lounge chairs. Abysmal internet. Water pressure good!

The hotel was fantastic & a quick walk to the shopping area. The only downside was the meal at Level 1 Restaurant. Had a roast beef meal that was very average. The vegetables were outstading & a great sized portion. Unfortunately the beef was so dry & tough.
