Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

broken equipment freezing gym
The gym was a significant letdown. Several pieces of equipment were out of order (I believe half of it). The heating system was broken as well, so the room was freezing. I found the lack of proper maintenance disappointing and it affected my workout routine.

Satisfactory stay at the hotel

pretty street friendly staff easy check-in bad restaurant stained cushions broken chair
The hotel is located on a very pretty street near the Underground. I found it easy to travel from the airport. It was also an easy walk to some sights around the area. The reception staff was friendly. Check-in was also easy.
The hotel restaurant was not very good. I noticed some chairs not in a good state. Stained cushions were present. One chair's arm was broken with a sharp metal bit.
