We loved being able to explore everything on foot. The staff at this hotel were incredibly flexible, allowing us to check in late in the evening and serving breakfast early in the morning. The accommodation itself exceeded our expectations, with rooms that were just as good as 4-star hotels. The breakfast was delicious, and we loved the convenience of pre-ordering our meals the night before.

No negatives from this place.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel - it was clean, had great facilities and free parking at the rear of the property. The location was perfect, right in the busy center of this city and only a short stroll from the bus terminus and the leisure centre. The breakfast was excellent, with delicious options to choose from. The staff were amazing, friendly, and knowledgeable about the area.

Nothing to fault.
