Acceptable Stay Lacking Attention to Detail

dusty room dated bathroom

The room seemed quite dusty to me. The bathroom looked dated. I noticed some clutter in the hallway. Specifically, empty cans sat on the windowsill. These details detract from the overall experience this hotel offers. I can't say I would eagerly return given these oversights.

A comfortable stay near Saltaire

good location ample space decent selection comfortable room

The hotel location proved convenient for visiting relatives nearby. I enjoyed two evenings in Saltaire. It was a short drive. My room provided ample space and comfort for the duration of my stay. The selection of beers at the bar was decent.

The shower pressure was not VERY strong, causing water to splash against the walls, and the furniture was slightly worn.

Outdated Room and Poor Bar Service

broken bathroom tiles poor customer service

The breakfast was good and reasonably priced.

The room felt really outdated. There were broken bathroom tiles. there were no bedside sockets for charging my phone. Very annoying! The barman seemed to lack customer service skills. He just looked at me as if to say, "What do you want?
