Mixed Experience at a Central Hotel
dirty bathroom floorslow breakfast service
The room was not as clean as I expected. There was hair on the bathroom floor, and I noticed dried shower gel on the shower wall. The room seemed a bit shabby, needing new carpet and fresh paint. The breakfast service was quite slow. I waited 20 minutes just for my order to be taken.

The breakfast was plentiful. The hotel satisfied our request to have 3 adjoining rooms. The Manageress acted swiftly to upgrade our rooms to the more quirky royal suites.
I found the room cleanliness middling. The door lock was fiddly. I couldn't lock it when I went out. I think signage would be helpful.

The breakfast included a good selection of pastries and hot items. I found the staff helpful (very much appreciated!) when I requested extra towels. The room's historic features, like the exposed beams, added character.
The water pressure in the shower was slightly lower than I prefer.
