It is a lovely hotel but unfortunately the room we stayed in was so uncomfortable, the mattress on the bed was so hard the pillows gave no support they just flopped when you laid your head on them needless to say we didn't get a sleep that night, the room was so hot and very small felt like a cupboard Also when the staff came on shift early morning slaming cupboard doors, in the corridor it's a shame but this lets the hotel down, We did say on the day we checked out to the receptionist after her asking if everything was ok so we did say as we've said in the review

It was ok. My room was more like a cupboard, so so small and shower room was a joke, bed creaked every time I moved. Very very basic and not a pleasant experience. I am now in a hotel in Porto - fabulous in comparison, everything much better than The Place
