Decent stay overall

friendly staff clean place good value small room shower update noisy stairs

The staff were friendly. The place was very clean. The price offered good value. There is a bar where you can relax with a drink.

The room was small. I found the shower needed some updating. I noticed some noise from the stairs to the breakfast room in the morning. Though the location was perfect!

small room outdated shower

The room i had was tiny! there were hardly any outlets, so annoying when i needed to charge my phone and camera. the shower really needs an update. It felt old and grimy. also. it was super noisy in the mornings since my room was right by the stairs to the breakfast room. the noise woke me up way earlier than i wanted. i am not happy with the bathroom and electrical issues, early morning noise

lovely stay near winter gardens

friendly staff satisfying breakfast

i found the staff very friendly and cute. my room was clean and the breakfast provided a satisfying start to the day. the hotel's location across from winter gardens was convenient for my darts event.

The corners of my room were a bit dusty, though i understand limited parking is typical for this area. It was not a major issue for me.
