My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the action, and breakfast was included, which was great. However, the room I was given was tiny and felt quite dated and damp. The staff, while nice, seemed a bit short-handed, making service a bit slow at times.

The room I stayed in was tiny and felt like it used to be staff accommodation. It was not as welcoming or modern as I had hoped for after a long journey. Hearing 'I don't know' when asking questions was not the best feeling after having my booking for almost a month.

The hotel lacked cleanliness and maintenance with substandard rooms and no breakfast offered at £46 a night, but it served its purpose for a short stay. The service was exceptional, especially from Helen, despite the thin walls. The location was convenient for visiting the nearby exhibition center, though the dining options were limited and not freshly prepared. Facilities were minimal with drawbacks in cleanliness and amenities.

I absolutely loved the mountain cabin vibe of the rooms, it felt so cozy and perfect for a family getaway. The hotel is conveniently located near cafes and other amenities, making it very practical. However, it's clear that the rooms could use a renovation as they seem outdated to me, dating back at least thirty years.

The bistro next door offered fantastic food and service, some of the best I've experienced. However, I found the prices a bit steep, especially paying £30 for a full English breakfast for two adults and a child.
