In need of maintenance
I had a suite room 118. There were a number of issues during this stay. The check in was very slow with the que almost to the front door. There was no hot water in my room so i had to have a cold shower as i was going out after work. One of the taps did not work and was hanging off. A shelf in the bath room was only just hanging on and bound to fall off soon. I called the front desk several times but the call was never answered. I was told at checkin that breakfast was included with the room only to find out the next day that it was not included. I dont normally book breakfast but to be told you have it included but then dont was embarrassing when i got to the front of the que.

Consider other newer hotels
In past years I’ve stayed at the sandman in Newcastle. I have noticed the aging and state of disrepair in the room I was given. The room safe would not close, the bolts were stuck in an out position. The shower head would not stay in one position so was showering water onto the tiles. Finally the heating was not enough to make the room warm. When I asked the front desk, the lady replied its at 24c. During the night the room was cold. Finally during dinner at the shark bar the one waitress was trying to serve all the customers. We ordered drinks that were not delivered, condiments, napkins the same.

The property was conveniently situated for the city and everything we need to do. But it’s on a main road and you could hear traffic noise. Whilst we have coffee and tea facilities it would have been nice to be provide with water too

Modern hotel, well situated for the shops, parking nearby provided by a 3rd party at a reduced rate. The hotel is situated on a busy road opposite St James Park and can be a bit noisy at times. The room was clean and well maintained but it contained a king size bed so the access to one side of the bed was a bit restricted. The bathroom had a walk-in shower so the floor got a bit wet a times
