Great Location, Friendly Service
central location friendly staff breakfast variety
The location is very central. I appreciated how close the hotel was to many attractions (just a short walk). The staff were very friendly and helpful. The free breakfast offered a good variety of options, including both cooked and continental choices.
The room was a bit small. (But honestly, I didn't spend much time there.)

Convenient City Stay
friendly staff good selection convenient location
The staff provided assistance and were friendly. Breakfast offered a good selection of items. The hotel's location near the city center and a car park made it easy to access different places.
The television in the room displayed a cloudy picture with poor color quality, almost like watching a black and white TV. I reported the TV issue, but no action was taken to resolve it . This impacted my ability to relax in the room.
