8/10 Good
"Very classy looking hotel. Decorated to a high standard. Comfortable beds. I couldn’t give a 5 star rating because of a few reasons. WiFi was poor in my room (910). In bed I couldn’t give barely even get the internet to work. The air con was also quite weak and the room often got much warmer than what we asked on the thermostat. Lastly there was little storage for clothes which made my room feel unnecessarily cluttered."

"A grand old style classical hotel and everything that goes with it. Beautiful. It is situated in an area which does not have many restaurants but mainly fast food outlets, so if you want to explore, be prepared for a 15 minute walk."
