Reasonable stay, decent room but dismal breakfast

Good sized room, lovely bathroom and reasonable shower. Breakfast was pretty dismal - dirty tables, mass produced hot items (tomatoes, hash browns, sausages, bacon and beans), limited continental. Platform lift to the breakfast area was blocked by a buggy (ground floor) and catering trolley (upper area). Good location if you don't want city central but still need access to trams and/or buses.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The breakfast buffet was horriffically dirty. No tables were cleaned, the staff 'cleaning' seemed to be clueless. I asked via message several times and over the phone about my stay being for 2 nights. Then same on arrival. I was then treated like a thief by a cleaner who said I only booked 1 night. Get your act together. I also found a long balloon under the bed when looking for the telly remote, you can imagine what I thought it was at first!!!!

Average stay. Nice staff, let down by owners.

The hotel is as expected on arrival, with a smooth check in experience. However, the first room we were given had issues with the keycard, which took at least 30 mins to solve. Also the air conditioning units were not working, so we could not heat the room. We had to change room. The front desk staff were apologetic, friendly, and understanding. They provided a portable heater for the room, which was very effective, and we were very glad of this. The breakfast was extremely busy, during peak times. I am not sure why a hotel would be designed with so many rooms and then have such little room for eating at tables. Makes very little sense. The food at breakfast was well presented and tasted good. We were thankful of that. Rooms and bathrooms were well presented and clean. Shower worked well, with wonderful warm water. In all, an average stay. The staff on the whole were very nice, and seem to be let down by ownership, with the design of breakfast and the fact that the air-conditioning units were not working, which meant rooms were cold. This SHOULD be addressed, and staff thanked for their patience.

There is no working heating on the rooms. I was given an electric heater but only hours after asking for one. The evening staff were the most unhelpful and the morning staff that promised a refund when hearing about this, never processed it! I would not recommend staying there
