Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was exactly what we expected and needed for our short stay - clean, spacious enough for our needs, and good value for money. The rooms were standard but clean and spacious, which was great for us as we were mostly out exploring. The bathroom was a bit small, but it had all the essentials. The friendly atmosphere and safe environment made us feel at home, and we would definitely choose to stay here again in the future.
The hotel provided us with a pretty standard room, but it was exactly what we needed for our short stay. It was clean, spacious enough, and had a friendly atmosphere that made us feel safe. The daily cleaning and restocking, including tea and biscuits, were a nice touch, especially for our little one. I would definitely stay here again in the future as it offers good value for the money.
