    cozy double room
    helpful staff

    we had a fantastic stay at dolphin sa1! the location was perfect, very close to everything. our double room was cozy and clean, with great tea and coffee facilities. the two men working that evening handled a fire alarm situation excellently. shoutout to chris at reception for being so helpful when we needed a place last minute!

    but I wish there had been more toiletries in the room.

    bathroom accessibility

    The hotel's decor was charming, and the accessibility was fantastic for seniors. It felt welcoming everywhere, especially the lovely breakfast area which was easy to navigate and brightened my mornings.

    More grab bars in the bathroom would be helpful.

    Great location for a quick stay!

    I stayed for 3 nights and it was pretty good. The room was small but comfy, perfect for sleeping after a long day out. I loved having both a bath and shower! The only annoying thing was that the windows let in too much noise from the street. They also had a nice snack bar on-site.

    The staff were super friendly, went out of their way to help, like when we arrived early, they held our bags and gave us tips on where to park. The room was spacious and clean, really comfy bed which was nice after a long day out.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but still reasonable.

    clean bathroom
    good shower
    plenty storage
    small room
    blasting radiator

    The single room was pretty small but had a clean bathroom and a good shower. I wouldn't say it was the comfiest bed ever, definitely felt a bit cramped. The radiator was blasting heat all night, which made it hard to sleep. On the bright side, there's plenty of storage space and a nice desk setup. The location was a plus, super close to everything. Just wish the room was a bit more updated and cozy.
