The man at the reception was very friendly He gave me a room upgrade when I arrived which I didn't really understand why The room he gave me had a slight smell of urine and the Aircon unit was noisey The windows look out onto a flat roof and you could smell the Indian restaurant next door The basic look of the hotel was good There wasn't a lot of chose for the breakfast I expected better from a ibis hotel I have stayed in others before and did not have any issues

OK for one night
The reception staff were friendly and welcoming. The room was very tired and extremely warm. Believe it was overpriced for what it is but was fine for the night.

This Hotel I find is more for asian people than euoropeans. Room was noisy so I requested a move a different room. This was done. Info in the bathroom says bath mats were available,the hotel didn’t have anything. Ask I am 85,it was quite differerent,standing in the bath with nothing to hold on to keep my balance.

Great stay at the Ibis style. The room was so hot they provided a fan. Only one negative thing was that there was an extract fan from the restaurant that was very noisy.
