Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. The location was convenient for my needs, and the staff was very friendly and easy to talk to. However, the room posed some challenges as my friend, who is not disabled, had difficulty walking from the car park. The room was uncomfortably hot, but we managed with a small fan provided upon request. The bathroom had a radiator near the toilet, which we couldn't turn off.
I stepped into a lovely warm, cozy room with everything I needed for an overnight stay. The hotel was fine, clean, and had tea/coffee facilities, making it spotless and comfortable. The service, especially at the bar, was excellent with polite and cheerful staff. Although the location didn't offer much nearby, it was good for what I needed. The dining experience was very good value, and the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel's location was convenient for transport networks and shops, but there were disturbances from parties, drunken guests, and loud music. The room size was decent despite being single. The service was generally helpful, but some noise disruptions occurred. The dining experience was pleasant with friendly staff and good breakfast hours, though some minor issues were noted. The warning about potential charges for damages was a negative aspect of the location.
