 The booking in system is idiosyncratic and awkward particularly for non English speakers The Manager is autocratic and dismissive Despite the Olympics being on television the lounge bar area is plagued by loud repetitive mediocre music and the staff are unable to turn it off 
 The rooms are spacious clean well furnished and at the rear of the hotel very quiet Requests not to be disturbed are respected With the exception of the manager the staff are very helpful and friendly in as far as language differences permit
