Nice hotel, poor reception staff
Arrived at the hotel to be told I had not paid for my room and they needed to take my credit card. I was in a rush, so did this. The hotel room was comfortable and the breakfast the following day was good and hot. I went to check out and had found the confirmation email detailing that I had paid. The same receptionist stated I had not paid and demanded that I signed her invoice. The female manager came over and told the receptionist to scroll down on her computer. The manager confirmed to me that I had paid, to which the receptionist rolled her eyes at me. I was surprised at her attitude and never write reviews normally. But wanted everyone to be aware of this issue and this receptionist doesn’t get anyone to pay twice, like what happened to me. Overall, a nice hotel ruined by a receptionist with attitude

Great staff and breakfast a shame about rooms
First room was beyond disgusting. Bathroom had ingrained dirt, see pictures. Springs on bed stuck out when you sat on them. Bedding had dirty stains and single sheet hadn’t been changed. Pillow had blood type stains on. See pictures. Moved to another room which was better but bedding is old as are beds. Staff were lovely and really helpful. Breakfast was very good.

Stayed for one night to attend evening concert at the Arena which is right next to the hotel so ideal location. Electric car charging point nearby so good for us too. Room was fine, nice big beds even in twin room. We didn't require food so cannot comment on restaurant.

Poor room
Got in late to this hotel as I was working long hours, got put in the disabled access room, nearest reception, I suspect for ease to them, had drunk people out my door at night and early risers going for breakfast early morning, bathroom was rubbish as everything was suitable for disabled access not tall men. I have stayed before in this hotel and it was fine but this visit was rubbish (sorry).

Good location with plenty of parking space.
Our booking was to allow us to attend an event in the city centre. Hotel was well located, about 10 minutes drive from city centre and with plenty of car parking spaces. Desk staff were very friendly and breakfast was varied and tasty.

Concert stayover
This hotel is ideal for attending concerts at the GE arena. Very clean, and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. We ate at the bar and the food was really good. The breakfast was great value and very tasty. The only downfall was, in my opinion....was that the bed was far too soft. That's being picky, but everything else was great.

Lovely staff, and the hotel needs some love!
Please upgrade the rooms. The staff are so lovely and they would be great in a hotel which has heating which works well, and bathrooms which are in the 21st century.

Basic, but comfortable.
Two-night stay for business purpose. Pleasant and efficient check in. Ample free parking. Not a lot of noise audible outside the bedroom on 5th floor. Room was spacious. Heater worked well. Décor is tired and dated, carpet needs a good clean. Small en-suite bathroom with complimentary toiletries. Ample towels. Mattress very soft, may cause bother if you prefer a firmer mattress. Breakfast service and food choices were good also. Evening meal was OK, nothing special. The restaurant and bar areas are situated off the lobby and lack any atmosphere. The tables are also very close together, so choose wisely if you are going to be bothered by others squeezing past. Having a stranger's behind skim the top of your table while you're eating is not a pleasant experience. Apart from the soul-less dining environment the overall stay was pleasant and I found all staff to be very helpful.
