Acceptable Hotel Stay
great breakfast choice helpful staff convenient location poor air conditioning faulty phone system electrical hazard
The breakfast had a great choice of items. All the staff were helpful and cheerful. The hotel is situated between Southsea and the city center.
The air conditioning did not work properly. The phone system didn't work either. A lamp shorted out and turned off randomly, a hazard.

non-draining handbasin margarine tub
The hotel location seemed promising. I did encounter an issue with the handbasin. It was not draining correctly, even after reporting it to the staff several times . No repairs were made. breakfast felt overpriced, especially because a communal tub of margarine stood in for butter, not expected for the high cost.

faulty air conditioning cold breakfast
The location was good, close to the seafront. the room I booked was quite small. The bathroom also felt cramped. Many TV channels did not work, disappointing. The air conditioning was not functional, and the window only opened slightly. Breakfast service was slow and poorly executed. Some items ran out and were not refilled promptly.
