Christmas market weekend
When arrived told we had been upgraded to a bigger room but would be a smaller bed than we booked. Room was abit bigger than a usual hotel room but carpet did have stains and stains in shower and was poo marks in bottom of toilet, wasn’t bad enough for me to complain to staff. Staff were always happy and smiling and the communal areas were nice and clean

Pleasant Stay.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful on our arrival, even though we were an hour early. The gentleman who secures luggage also showed us to the restaurant area whilst we waited for our room to be ready. Very helpful and informative, explained that the hotel is being renovated enabling a direct route from the train station. Overall, everyone was helpful. Food was tasty and to a good standard however the buffet breakfast items such as bacon, sausages, eggs had cooled, not sure the hot plate was working properly. Bedroom clean, but decor becoming tired, needs revamp. Comfortable beds! Lovely overnight stay and the people who worked there were helpful, friendly and patient!

We had a lovely stay however was really inconvenienced when a faulty air con system made a loud buzzing noise at 3am which needed reception to turn off. If it hadn’t been for this I would have rated you 5 stars.

It’s meh, nothing too bad, nothing too good.
Firstly, great location! Perfect for Fringe which is why we were there. So easy to walk to fringe venues from the hotel. Maybe next year the hotel will be better? Right now it’s basically a construction zone. The whole building is covered in scaffolding and reception (or what’s left of reception) is boarded up. Little deceitful of the hotel to not advise that they are undergoing renovations as I wouldn’t have stayed and definitely would have picked somewhere else. Staff need a lesson in customer service when it comes to public areas and elevators though. When your hotel only has 2 working elevator, as the 3rd is boarded up, when a guest comes to the elevators, guests go first no matter what. This doesn’t seem to apply here. Guests can wait. Room was comfortable, housekeeping a bit rubbish. They do the bare minimum to get by, Need to have a process in place to check floors more often, especially if the rooms are way in the back like mine was. Don’t enjoy the stink of spaghetti bolognaise being left in the corridors from lunch until late when I get back. It was ok. It was a bed in a great location. Would I stay here again? Probably not.
