Place was ok, good location from bus terminals. Lots of restaurants nearby breakfast was good with some variety. But room had some neglected maintenance issues. Bidet that did not work. Two bedside lamps that did not work and were half hanging off the wall. Lighting in room was terrible also. Everything was too bright. And overhead. So too harsh for winding down to sleep.

It's a slightly down-market area, a 15 minute walk to the main tourist area, but we chose it as it was close to the bus station. The room itself was excellent - very generous size and with a huge round jacuzzi bath. It also had a steam cleaner and massive TV. It had tea and coffee making and a fridge. Very clean, we were delighted. They told us it's really a business hotel. Breakfast was ok, self service toast and very limited buffet.

Friendly, clean, comfortable hotel

Fantastic hotel with friendly and attentive staff. We paid a little more (about £20 more overall) for the deluxe double room and it was well worth it. The bed was very comfy and the bath was huge! Free breakfast had something for everyone and was tasty. The hotel managers and front desk staff were so nice and welcoming. Thank you for a lovely stay.
