a less than stellar experience

poor room service cold pool
The room service was quite poor , and everything i ordered was either wrong or incomplete. the nighttime food service was also disappointing . The person delivering the food to my room was quite rude. the room itself was tiny , and the hotel pool was cold when i tried to use it. i chose this hotel specifically for the pool and was not happy.

Acceptable hotel for sightseeing

central location short walk hotel pool room keys high tech hotel porter
The location proved central. It was easy to walk to Leake Street. Southbank was also just a short walk. I liked that the hotel had a pool during quiet times.
The porter did not seem to know how things worked in the room. The room was high tech and needed assistance. My room keys also did not work the room had not been used in a while.
