The staff were wonderful and kind. But the property is old — our room smelled badly of mold. The area also wasn’t the safest and we didn’t feel comfortable walking around at night (they also have to lock the door to the hotel and you have to buzz in which makes it difficult when arriving later in the evening).

Very friendly staff. Room was basic and needed a bit of tlc to be honest. Comfortable but a maximum if 3 star accomodation. Breakfast good but slow service. They advertise a roof top bar but during our entire stay it was booked for private parties and thus inaccessible for all but one night
Don’t rely on being able to use the roof top bar. If there’s  a private function it’s closed to guests!
