Good clean room helpfull friendly staff good location
Great location and good breakfast, a coyple of isdues with cleanliness of room but not to much of an issue, a lot of noise from upstairs room but overall a good stay
We choosed the room with see view , we had view for car parks . I would say it was more hostel than hotel standards room . Wasn't quiet, we heard all moves, talks from room above us.
