"No hot water and the room is noisy"

4.0

I had no hot water and the aircon makes a lot of noise. Even if I switch off the unit in my room, the unit in the rooms next to me were noisy.

"Hôtel bien situé et très pratique pour un séjour de courte durée"

7.0

La situation idéal à côté du port dans un quartier sécurisé avec la place de parking, Le super petit déjeuné, le personnel agréable.

équipements ( papier peint un peu abîmé, traces de café ou éclaboussures de boisson sur le meuble, poignées de porte de la chambre très basse , boîte à mouchoirs en mauvais état …)

"Comfortable but in need of a revamp"

6.0

The hotel is looking a bit tired and dated and the staff need training on food allergies such as Coeliac disease. Everyone was friendly and professional however and we overall enjoyed the stay. Great breakfasts!!

"Et greit priset hotell, sentralt i Waterfront"

6.0

Hotellet er svært godt plassert i Waterfront-området. Det er i gåavstand fra det meste, og likevel skjermet fra den verste turiststøyen. Grei frokost, rent rom. Vennlig personale.

Aircondition på rommet vårt var rett ved sengen og var høylytt når den var på. Vi spurte resepsjonen om lyden er normal og det viser seg at den er det. Sikkert en smakssak, men vi måtte slå den av når vi la oss. Mye lyd og den blåser kald luft rett mot senga. Hvis du har et rom vendt mot inngangen til hotellet, kommer du til å høre andre gjester som går av og på turbusser. Etter vår erfaring er dette et 3-stjerners hotell. Før vi kom til Portswood, bodde vi på et 5-stjerners hotell rett i nærheten. Forskjellen i standard var enorm.
