We stayed for one night and had a very pleasant experience. The front desk staff was polite and very helpful.Our room was clean and a good size, with a comfortable bed and strong Wi-Fi. Breakfast was simple with fresh pastries and coffee, but tasty. The location is central and close to town Centre.For the price, this hotel offers great value and We would stay here again.
Everything was what we expected the staff on reception were wonderful. The room was clean and spacious, an ice cube tray in the freezer would have been nice but that’s a minor issue. Breakfast was lovely well cooked and good choice. Helga on reception makes you feel most welcome.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was spacious if a little dated and the bed was comfortable
A lovely welcome by the reception staff. No problems with the room and had a good breakfast.
The only very small thing I noticed was some not very clean public areas, such as the stairs and the outside windows in the staircase (very dirty). Hokwever, they did not affect our stay.
Slightly disappointed that we had to pay for hotel car parking.
Very central location, handy for the city centre and easy to navigate to.
Room was clean a little bit of dust but nothing bad beds n shower were amazing staff were fantastic very helpful and polite always there to help lovely breakfast with coffee machine Nice and quiet place fantastic location will definitely stay again
Room was clean, staff were polite and friendly, parking was a bit of a challenge as there was only one spot left when we arrived and it was tricky to access, WiFi was intermittent, and breakfast was good. So a mixed bag but generally good value for a stop over stay.
Breakfast was fine ,plentyful , staff were curtious , but the parking oh-dear , yes outside but charges & having to scan were annoying , the tv's in rooms next to useless No point turning on .
Room clean , bathroom clean and laundry, staff very friendly, breakfast is clean and nice, only one thing not very good is car park only can about 20 cars if you lucky can park near hotel not far !
