As usual the reception staff were not exactly unfriendly, but not welcoming either. The room is very basic, with thin frayed towels and water in the shower which keeps going from hot to cold to hot again. Hotel bar is really unfriendly and often closed. Horrible noise from rooms either side of ours, I could hear every word. We were happy with this hotel and its basic facilities when the price was much lower, but now the price is the same as many other better hotels, so I doubt we'll stay here again.
