Tired and dated

This hotel needs a significant upgrade. It’s very tired and dated. Staff were stretched and therefore less helpful that what you’d expect especially on the phone prior to booking as if anything requested was a bother to them. I won’t be returning.

Whilst it may feel a little dated and can be a little noisy in the evening, the facilities are good, and well kept. The beds were firm but comfortable and the pool & spa were very enjoyable. It’s also well positioned over the bay and within easy walk of the heart of Douglas.

Not great hotel

Best western - [ ] Rude and unfriendly front desk staff - [ ] The hotel cards are awful and get deactivated immediately - [ ] Friendly manger- said it’s been updated coming in 12 months? - [ ] Whole hotel- Aged, ripped carpets - [ ] Rooms- haven’t been updated in 20 years - [ ] Poor photos on websites - [ ] Why twin rooms? They should have doubles? - [ ] There should be off season, tourist discounts - [ ] The irons are old and dated - [ ] You need to give a cash deposit for the towels at the pool - [ ] The hotel keys get deactivated all the time - [ ] Broken shower rod hangers - [ ] Dirty bath mat - [ ] WiFi- no internet connection- 1-2 bars, slow- mentioned something on December 11 and he mentioned because there’s a lot of people in the hotel. Which obviously makes no sense. - [ ] Sheets dirty, Hairs in the bed - [ ] Carpets in the hall are ripped, they used tape that peeled - [ ] Dirty cups, when they turned the room over

Great location and staff. rooms are fine, the reception, halls and exterior are tired but all perfectly functional. Nice restaurants and bars within hotel. The Pool and Spa are a bit of hassle to get in, you actually have to leave the main building and go outside, changing facilities are small and it’s a bit of a hassle to sign in and out but pool is nice once you are in.
