I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The room was comfortable, even though the selection of complimentary items was not as generous as in other locations. However, the bed was cozy, and the room had all the necessary amenities. The service at the Premier Inn was top-notch, with helpful and friendly staff always available. The location, while nondescript, offered free parking and a quiet environment for a good night's sleep. The dining experience at Brewers Fayre was a highlight, with a fantastic buffet breakfast worth every penny. The facilities were well-maintained and provided a pleasant stay overall.
The hotel is conveniently located close to the city center and bay, offering a quiet and peaceful stay. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to assist with any needs. Rooms were clean and well-maintained, though some minor issues like flat pillows were noted. The dining experience at the adjacent pub was praised for its variety and quality. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly service.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although slightly worn and in need of a refresh, were clean. However, the lack of working air conditioning was a downside. The service from the staff was exceptional, offering warm and helpful assistance. The location, while convenient for some attractions, had some cleanliness issues. The dining experience was good quality but slightly overpriced. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with more than enough space for my family of 5 due to being moved to this hotel at the last minute. The easy parking outside was convenient, and the staff was friendly. However, noise was an issue throughout my stay.
I had a generally pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable despite some issues with ants and mold, but the staff were friendly and the dining options were satisfying. The location, though a bit noisy, was convenient for my trip.
