The drinks at the bar were a bit pricey.

mixed experience, breakfast quality declined
poor breakfast understaffed room
the room decor was nice (i really liked it).
breakfast was not great. when items ran out at the buffet, they were not refilled, even after i asked the staff for orange juice and fruit. it seemed like the breakfast room was understaffed.

water damage poor breakfast
I found some aspects of my stay disappointing. the bathroom door showed signs of previous water damage. The floor outside was also uneven. music from elsewhere in the building was audible at most times in room 108. the continental breakfast selection was poor. Coffee came from a machine now. the mackerel dish was also not worth the money. it was eggs on avocado toast with a tiny piece of fish.

Excellent City Center Hotel
superb location professional staff
The hotel is in a superb location. It is only a few steps from the Cathedral and shopping centers. The staff was polite and professional (I was really impressed). The room's appliances worked perfectly. The room also featured a big shower, a really nice bathroom and a comfy bed. I would happily stay here again.
I experienced a little wait for the coffee during breakfast. Everything else such as pastries and cereals seemed empty. I think they need to review and adjust their breakfast offer.

The breakfast service was a bit slow at times (though the food itself was good). The continental choice offered pastries, breads, and cereals, a solid and sufficient selection for starting the day.
