Average rooms. Not good value for the money for sure. At this price and amenities, breaksfast shoul've been includid in the room rate Close to V&A waterfront but not really inside as the name suggests. 15min walking which was fine as to execice a bit in the Mornings No refill of the shower soap. Poor. Nice cafe accross the canal and infront of the hotel Very well located

Gavin

Disliked: Cleanliness
While I often think experiences are very personal and everyone looks for something different - based on the reviews and price paid I did not expect a room to not be available, I arrived after the check in time had started, the room was not clean, surfaces were "sticky", nothing felt clean and the dead cockroach by the fridge had been there for a while. The TV was not working and the shower did not drain - these final items I notified maintenance through the notification system. The people were great and I have no complaints about my interaction with the staff, I just think based on prime location and cost there are items that do not meet the expected standard - again, just my personal opinion as someone privileged to travel alot.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel staff is as always very friendly and helpful. The changes to the rooms favor looks to practicality. For me the bed is too low (it’s an age and mobility thing) and the wooden frame introduce unnecessary danger. The lack of closed clothes storage makes a 9-day stay fairly difficult. The changes to the restaurants looks good, but seating is impractical - at least next to the windows. Some of the old nice touches such as a bit of popcorn with drinks on the patio in the afternoon is sad and caused the hotel to loose some of its homely feel to commercial consistency. Having said that, the restaurant provides good quality at a decent price.

The only reason I am not giving a 5 star rating is the price. I stay there multiple times a year. The % rates increase after the upgrades are not worth the price. Not all your guests are foreigners.
