Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and had a good shower, although my room overlooked bins and a car park, which was a downside. The service was overly nice which, at times, felt a bit much, but the staff were friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, near transport hubs, but the surrounding area was not very appealing. The dining options were only adequate, and the hotel had some issues with running out of menu items. On the bright side, the hotel offered free breakfast, which was a nice touch.
The hotel was a great value for money. The room was clean and well presented, with beautiful natural light and a comfortable bed. However, the location being on the ground floor overlooking the bin area was not as expected.
The hotel was a delightful surprise with a beautiful room and amazing service, though the location was not ideal being close to a run-down area. The dining experience was exceptional, and the facilities were great value for money.
