Everything was good except when the fire alarm went twice during our stay, staff didn’t know what was happening. We came out but some people stayed in there rooms and was on the balconies looking down. Need to have a much better emergency evacuation plan and fire marshals should check all floors etc.

Worst Western
First impression was poor with the incredibly unfriendly attitude from the receptionist in the morning. I said I had a booking and I had to prompt every time for any acknowledgment. Then when I checked in, the room hadn’t been vacuumed and was dusty everywhere. I would expect this from a much cheaper hotel. I was offered another room which was an improvement but next to the washer and dryers, which are on most the night. Only positive is the view over the city and the other staff are more pleasant, but would not be recommending this hotel.
