Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel is very attractive set next to the river Dee & in walking distance of the city centre. The staff were extremely friendly, professional & helpful. The restaurant & bar areas were very clean, well set out & comfortable the food was delicious. The bedroom we stayed in was set out very well, with a view of the river. Unfortunately, the bedroom was dirty & dusty. The wall-lights were loose & dusty. The en-suite bathroom was also very dirty & dusty the toilet roll holder was broken & the shower soap holder was missing. This was a let down to our stay. A deep clean more checks by management are needed to ensure it’s at its best for future customers or more conscientious cleaning staff are employed.

The rooms were comfortable with an excellent shower. The property was in a quiet riverside location, within easy walking distance of the centre of the city. The staff were efficient and friendly. We couldn't fault anything about our stay.

Staff were very helpful but I feel they needed more staff as tables outside were left dirty for a period of time. I did email the property twice regarding my birthday weekend no response on both occasions.
