The building is VERY dated. Whilst ok from the outside, at reception level including the breakfast area, once you leave there it’s clear the place urgently needs some TLC. On arrival we were given our room on the fourth floor and told we needed to use the stairs as the lift was broken. This meant 107 steps up and 107 back down every time we came in or out.
The stairwell itself was cold concrete with half completed electric work showing through. We were told the lift had been down for ten days prior to our arrival and they didn’t know when or if it would be fixed. I can understand this as although broken, the lift itself was a small old service elevator type design of another era.
Basically if you have any health issues don’t stay here and risk no lift. After 4 or 5 ups and downs the fun goes away and after a long day sightseeing, 107 steps to get to your room is a killer! Breakfast at 12.50 was was too steep. There was very little choice on offer, breads and pastries were not replenished the half hour we were there. The room itself was ok, finishing needed tidying up but for the price we paid for 3 nights, I certainly expected a lot lot more than the dated and rundown experience we had.
