Good hotel, would definitely stay again, only drawbacks were no tea and coffee facilities in the room, took our own travel kettle, cups and tea bags. No carpets near bed area, should have taken slippers 😂 Small fridge was adequate and low noise. Beds comfortable and maid in everyday. Breakfast was busy but we got there early so wasn’t an issue.… Read more
