Arriving on a Sunday morning by car, could not access the hotel because the road was closed on Sundays for pedestrian access only (we were not advised). Returning at night after business, could not access the gate (there is no actual front to the hotel) could not attract the attention of staff to open the gate and stood there in the cold and rain for 10 minutes. We drove to the hotel - big big mistake as there is no parking and no street parking and no municipal car park nearby. Staff completely disinterested in trying to resolve this problem and we ended getting tickets for illegal parking during the night. A brick-like mattress too uncomfortable to sleep on and to top it, covered by a plastic mattress protector. It would have been more comfortable sleeping on the floor. Pillows with lumps and if you are a non-smoker do not go near the place as the rooms and reception stink badly of smoke. There is no cable news television channel available. All in all a ridiculous price for a room with no adequate shower. Just putting some quirky furniture and paintings does not justify the room being so inadequate.
