The room was spacious, with a huge and comfortable bed. It exceeded our expectations. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, especially the night time staff who allowed us to go out and get a late-night pizza. The hotel facilities were great, with a wide variety of food and drink options. The cleanliness of the hotel, including the bedroom and bathroom, was superb. The location was also convenient, with parking available in the car park directly across the street. We were able to take short drives or easily explore the city from this location.
No issues.
The staff were friendly and helpful, especially Louise. They made sure we had everything we needed, even during the hot weather. The location was very convenient, with the railway station only a short walk away and the bus station across the street. The hotel had a beautiful view of the river and the breakfast was excellent with a wide variety of hot and cold options. The cleanliness of the hotel was top-notch and we felt secure with the key-card access to our room.
Nothing, all great.
The hotel staff were super kind and welcoming. The location was perfect, just a few minutes' walk from the city center, museums, and restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable, with a recently renovated and modern bathroom. The hotel had a pub with live music, which was a big plus, especially for solo female travelers like me. The breakfast was good, and the hotel had great transportation options nearby.
Cannot find any fault.
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any questions. The room was clean, bright, and had a lovely atmosphere. The beds were comfortable and inviting, with double pillows and cushions. the hotel provided a fan, which was greatly appreciated during the hot weather. The location of the hotel was perfect, as it was conveniently close to the train station and within walking distance to many shops and restaurants in the downtown area.
Nothing all good.
