Pros: Property was very accessible to the city centre and all attraction Cons 1)Breakfast served at hotel had fixed menu for all the days so it's difficult for any to have same food through out the stay 2)Room service given by staff was very pathetic,she used same glove to wash u r closet and than to clean u r bed and to wash your u are utensils at room .Even after requesting her to change glove and clean thn she changed to new glove and used floor used towel to dry the cups This are main things which made us to feel bad and disgusting,we belive hygiene should be on priority and we have no idea how it was cleaned before allocation Requesting voco team to look into this and serve better at future

I booked two rooms. One through Expedia. One direct. My room was small. The double bed could be described as a wide ironing board. I’d suggest you manage expectations and don’t think you’ll get the sort of room you see on the website. Staff were okay. Public areas far superior to the room. Would not be happy if I had booked for more than one night.
