Great staff, so helpful and friendly. Great breakfast, comfy room. The room was just quite hot and can only open window a fraction due to safety reasons (totally understandable) but no fan provided. Would happily stay here again though.

The hotel is a bit tired-looking and could do with a refurb for sure, especially the rooms. It was also somehow way too hot during the night (which others I was traveling with also pointed out). The room was clean. Staff is friendly, we had a good chat when I was checking out.
