Great location, comfy beds, and had everything we needed but weirdly un insulated windows so noisy overnight and breakfast was a bit chaotic as it is a massive hotel so really busy
Very attentive staff who are ready to assist you. Nice room for our family and the area seemed safe for walking around at night. There are limited dining options around but most nights we ate before coming back to the hotel. Location was close to the train station which was the reason we stayed here. We would stay again.
Spacious room, great location and close to amenities

Excellent location for our stay, check-in was busy but the staff were efficient and friendly. Always greeted when arriving/departing the hotel. Room for 3 adults was fine for our short stay. Would recommend and return.
