There were many things to like about this hotel but there were just too many things that were weak to give it more than three stars. What is to like: 1) location is great, 2) most of the staff had excellent service skills (for example there was a problem with our room when we checked in (lights in cupboards would not turn off) and they immediately moved us to a new room with an upgrade,3) beds are extremely comfortable, 4) quality of the refurbished rooms was very high. What did not work so well: 1) rooms facing the roads are can be noisy at night (bring ear plugs), 2) the hotel is under going major refurbishments, so it will be extremely noisy in the room during the day and there are teething problems in the new rooms too (note light issue above and TV worked but no channels after the first night, 3) some staff at breakfast do not speak English which resulted in my partner missing breakfast due to a tight check out time we needed to make our trip work. All in all it was fine, and I am pretty sure it will get better post refurbishment, but you do expect better given the price
