Acceptable Stay. Some Issues Noted

quayside locationparking valuebuffet breakfastunclear instructiontram noisehot water
I enjoyed the hotel location, it's right on the quayside. It made it easy to walk to the Utilita Arena. Parking was good value at £10, and I found a space with no issues. The complimentary drinks vouchers were a nice touch. Complimentary bottled water was available in the room fridge. Breakfast was good. Warm pastries were fresh. There were fruits, cereals, and a pancake machine too. The hot buffet selection was very good, and the sausage was top quality!
I did not like the car park instructions. They were unclear. I wasn't sure if I could use reserved business spaces. I tried calling twice, but I got no answer. The bedroom window was stuck open! The trams were loud until 1 am. I found the place quite outdated. Hot water was intermittent when I took a shower.
