The service was friendly and genuinely helpful, making our stay a delight. The location was good for us, with a nice view over the river Dom in our room. The dining experience was satisfactory, with ample options considering the circumstances. Overall, a great stay with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel was quite spacious, but I had to wait longer than expected for my room, and the bed seemed smaller than I anticipated. Despite that, the staff were more than helpful, even bringing me coffee when I asked for it in the room. The location was near the city center, but there were some safety concerns with catcalling and shady characters. The dining options were a bit limited, and the breakfast service was not up to par.

I requested a room on a high floor due to being a light sleeper, but overlooked the main ring road and hotel car park. The room was lovely, very clean, and nicely decorated. The service was great overall, especially the breakfast staff. The location was ideal for the city center and The Foundry. However, the dining experience was lacking with limited options. Despite some setbacks, the hotel is clean, comfortable, and offers friendly staff.

My stay at the hotel was quite an experience. The rooms, although not exactly what I expected in terms of bed size, were clean and spacious, and the staff went above and beyond to assist us, even calling to confirm we hadn't left anything behind. However, there was a slight mix-up with the bed arrangement. The service was friendly and helpful, especially James, who had to handle a demanding group. The location was convenient for exploring the area but had a downside with some unideal views. The dining options were good, although some ingredients seemed a bit cheap. Overall, a memorable stay with both positives and negatives.
