Our stay was very good. The staff were excellent. My only issue was that each day I had to ask for milk, and on one day tea bags, as house keeping forgot to replenish them. But they did a great job in cleaning tidying and remaking our bed. Overall we were very pleased with our stay.

The smiles at reception said it all.

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the Rex. The conversation and smiles at reception bode well for a positive stay. Assistance with parking was wonderful. It was comfortable (although the beds are firmer than we are used to) and the room was clean. I really appreciated the pool. Perhaps considering reducing/removing the small plastic toiletries would be a small improvement.

Staff were very polite and efficient. The room was very spacious and comfortable. Loved the balcony for fresh air. We attended a wedding there and it went very well. A wonderful venue.

Convenient location. Service can be friendly or hands off. Property layout means you can be far way from elevators. Décor in hallway is dated but inferior is nice, comfortable, less dated and clean. Though we did see one cockroach in the morning the room did not feel dirty. Parking is a no-cover parking on property, spaces limited. Small rectangle pool with minimal heating is in the residential building next door, not easy to access.
