Very comfortable stay. Room was warm and clean with a wonderful view of Alisa Craig from the window. We ate dinner out but the continental breakfast in the room was plentiful (the milk was only just in date but was fine).

Ok for a few nights

The hotel does not look very appealing from the outside (barely recognisable as a hotel) and the lack of reception and breakfast in your room is a bit odd. That said, my room was as per the photos, airy, clean and comfortable. The manager was helpful and the breakfast in the room was perfectly fine. It was all ok for me for a few nights on a work trip, but not what I would call a leisure hotel.

It’s the only hotel I have never stayed at and booked another. Everything about it was awful so I had to leave and book another hotel. I have never had to do that before. I have stayed and thought wouldn’t go again but never gone somewhere and left

Przytulny, wygodny hotelik w znakomitej lokalizacji. Blisko do autobusu, do muzeów i niedaleko od plaży. Uprzejmy, pomocny personel - nie było żadnego kłopotu z zamianą pokoju na bardziej komfortowy oraz z późniejszym wymeldowaniem. Zachwycił mnie pomysł ze śniadaniem, na które nie trzeba schodzić w określonych godzinach. Wszystko, co potrzebne do śniadania znajduje się już w pokoju, częściowo na przeznaczonym do tego stoliku, a częściowo w znajdującej się w pokoju lodówce. Żadnego stresu z budzeniem się i spieszeniem na śniadanie, wszystko w zasięgu ręki i o pasującej mi porze:-))) Nie podobały mi się tylko trzy rzeczy. Po pierwsze pół litra mleka, to zdecydowanie za mało na dwie osoby. Po drugie pod prysznicem nie było nawet najmniejszej półeczki, żeby położyć mydło lub szampon, a papier toaletowy też nie miał żadnego uchwytu, co niestety nie było zbyt wygodne. Po trzecie łóżka, choć bardzo wygodne, były bardzo wąskie, nigdy nie widziałam tak wąskich łóżek i obawiałam się nieco, że spadnę. Poza tymi mankamentami uważam pobyt za bardzo udany, a już na pewno można polecić ten hotel na krótszy pobyt.

Old smelly hotel.

Well the carousel wasn’t large enough for my vehicle so I was forced to park in the street. The room smelled damp and the wallpaper was hanging off the walls. My bathroom was down the hall and also smelled really bad. I was supposed to Stay for 2 nights but I had to leave after 1 night due to the conditions.
