Nice place, just needs more staff
Leaking tub never got fixed. Understaffed, couldn't find front desk a lot because they were running around helping others.

Room booked for 3 people and sofa bed was not made. No staff to make bed so I had to get bed linens downstairs and make my own bed.
When checking out they couldn’t print my invoice.

Not the worst but not the best....
Asked for a room on the top floor weeks in advance and although I know it's not a given, all the lady on the front desk could say was that they were fully booked???? (she was Miss Personality for sure) and as I thought there was a herd of elephants wearing hob nailed boots in the room above. Why can't they build a hotel with good soundproofing???? surely in 2024 they should've come up with an answer? The bed seemed small for a Queen, the fridge was loud which seems to be a given. The crockery and glasses had been washed in a slapdash manner. The water was scalding hot which I kinda liked but not sure it would've been good to a small child. The room was clean, it was lacking in towels, two very small and thin bath towels and one hand towel. Free coffee in the lobby, the bold blend was indeed bold.... The Red Roof Inn behind the hotel appears to be budget housing or migrant housing. There was a bunch of kids playing soccer on the car park and the ball managed to hit a few cars in the preferred parking spots back there. All in all not the worst place I've stayed in and thankful that I didn't get a room with a connecting door!

We came back from dinner, and before heading upstairs to our room, we asked that extra blankets/sheets and pillows were available for the pull out couch and was told yes.. we got in our room and settled in, got ready for bed. Starting looking for the blanket/sheets and pillows and found a pillow in bedroom on floor beside chair and random pillow case in front closet.. so we called downstairs (called 4 times- kept going to out voicemail) finally on the 5th try someone answered- we asked about the linen and was told to check the couch - we opened it up and it was completly bare - she then advised us " okay well we have them here at the desk.." i answered " oh we have to come down and get it???..." Yes - well had to get changed to go down and get our blanket and linens.. not what i expected, any other hotel would have brought up missing items to the room.. not great service 😕
