 Hotel and Rooms were dark with subdued lighting that made it feel gloomy in all areas except Reception and the Restaurant Due to a large function in the Quayside Suite the small car park under the hotel was full and we were advised to use the nearest NCP which was half a mile away This was the only alternative and once I got there I was nervous leaving my car in the car park as it was away from the main South Quay area of Marsh Wall in a less safe area The barriers were also closed but the car park not manned or locked from 10pm to 5am so my car would have been unavailable if a home emergency had arisen in the night It was also the worst hotel breakfast we ve had for a while except for the fruit yoghurt Watered down fruit concentrate weak tea cooked breakfast was manky and barely warm tasteless and unappealing Finally the view from our room window was a building site and internal courtyard hardly stunning 
 Temperature in the Hotel and rooms was sensibly cool Staff attentive and efficient
