Reviews and Ratings
The studio apartment had some cleanliness issues like dust and stains, although the room had nice extra space and amenities. The service was slow at times, and the staff didn't clear tables promptly. The location had nice aesthetics but lacked cleanliness due to guests' behavior. The dining options were messy but offered good choices. Overall, a mixed experience with some positive and negative aspects.
The hotel had decent rooms, but the noisy music until late was a downside. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location needs improvement with noisy disturbances, yet there are comfortable areas. The dining offered a range of choices, but queues and replenishment were an issue.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its modern and spacious rooms, though some parts appeared tired and in need of refurbishment. The service was top-notch, especially notable were the male receptionist and Ricky for their attentiveness. The location was convenient for exploring with some cleanliness issues. The dining experience was hit or miss, with some great dishes but room for improvement. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancements.
The hotel's rooms are a bit tired and could do with redecorating, but they do have all the necessities available. The service was a mix; some staff were helpful and flexible, while others were unwelcoming. The location is close to Ashford International Station and ideal for accessing the motorway. The dining experience could be better as food took a long time and cleanliness was lacking. Despite some downsides, the pool and steam room were highlights.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious and equipped with everything needed, felt dated and in need of modernization. The service was a bit inconsistent, with helpful moments but also instances of feeling rushed. The location was convenient for some activities but slightly challenging to find in the dark. The dining options were tasty, but I felt they could have been more varied. The facilities were decent, but there was room for improvement.
The hotel room was a good size, but it was dusty and very noisy. Despite having all the facilities one could need, there was a lot of dust, even a ball in the bathroom corner.
