The room was the least attractive part of the whole hotel. Seemed a little run down. The person responding to Expedia messages answered (incorrectly, about laundry services available) after I had already checked out, even though I sent the message before I even checked in

Room was excellent- unfortunately next to an external lift that clanked until midnight then began at 0400hrs. Request a room away from the lift
