Satisfactory Experience
beautiful view excellent bar good location small room external condensers bright light
The room had a beautiful view. The bar was excellent. The location of the hotel was good.
The room was too small so staff offered another one. The room offered was next to external condensers. The room only had blinds and my room was illuminated from a neighboring room from a bright light.

badly-needed decorating charity shop furniture
The building does look excellent from the outside, and the location is quite convenient.
My room was quite a letdown. It badly needed some decorating, it really did. I spotted only one accessible electric socket. The furniture? I suspect it came from a charity shop. It gave that vibe. the experience was quite sad and dingy.
