The staff were very friendly and helpful. My room was clean, and everything i needed was there. I appreciated that the railway station was close. The bus links were also handy.
The room was small. It also had poor sound proofing, unfortunately. Breakfast was fairly basic. There could have been more options.

excellent stay

spacious flatamazing bathroomnoise level
i discovered my room was a great apartment. the hotel gave us the spacious flat after requesting a family room. the bathroom was amazing and bedrooms were beautifully decorated. staff friendliness made everything easy.
Room fourteen was noisy with an air conditioning unit right outside. even with the window closed, noise levels were unacceptable. i found the door lock to room fourteen worked intermittently. I almost got locked in at one point.
