mixed feelings about the stay

acceptable locationmarked wallsuncleaned carpet
the location was acceptable. it was easy to reach nearby attractions.
The room i had was disappointing, the walls had many marks and a carving of what seemed like someone's name. also, the carpet seemed uncleaned. it did not give a good impression. I expected better for the price.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING stay!

free poolclean roomgreat locationfree beverage
The staff let me check in super early. My room was READY!!! Downstairs, I found a free pool table. My room was comfy and SO clean. The location worked out really well for me. There was also a water fountain in reception. Complimentary tea and coffee were such a nice touch too.
The shower head hosing had a slight damage at the top. It wasn't a big deal, but worth noting.

My room included conditioning and heating, and the staff sorted it the next day. Breakfast provided a great buffet selection, and I always found a seat even when busy. The room size was typical, like most Ibis rooms, but totally adequate for a city stay.

The hotel stands in a business area, a very short walk from the train station. This location proved convenient, as central station was only a few blocks away, less than ten minutes on foot. The proximity to transport links made exploring very easy.

Music Themed Stay

friendly staffstylish designquiet atmosphereloose shower
The staff were friendly and helpful, going above and beyond. The hotel showcases a stylish, modern design, including a jukebox and a pool table available for use at no cost. I found the location to be convenient, close enough for walking to the centre yet still providing a quiet atmosphere..
I noticed the shower riser in my room was loose and detached from the wall. This made showering somewhat inconvenient, as the showerhead was not securely fixed. It's a minor maintenance issue, but addressing it would improve the experience.
Location

The hotel is located in a business area. I chose this location because the central station was just a few blocks down the street, and the walk took less than ten minutes. It was easy to reach transportation links from this hotel.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great with comfy clean rooms. Everything needed was to hand. The layout and style in the bar area was a plus.
The parking lot at the hotel was very expensive. I had to book parking at the last minute for four days. This cost was half the price of my stay.
