0"The hotel though originally beautifully decorated came across as rather 'tired' and in need of refurbishment and this was underlined in the handbook in the rooms not being up to date with restaurant times etc. Some of the staff in the restaurant were aggressive and they all seemed in need of good leadership and their uniforms looked in need of renewal. We were also unsettled by overhearing two guests complaining of 'the smell' [which was strange in the big lobby area] and refusing to stay and they weren't well dealt with by the duty manager."
