short stay.

My room, 2031, was small but adequate. For a small room the TV was too large but not a problem to complain about. Breakfasts were great with a good display and choices. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful.

Faultless stay

Very enjoyable 3 night stay. Room much bigger than anticipated and very nice to have a coffee machine for which the capsules were replenished when needed. Excellent breakfast with fresh, good quality products. The hotel was quiet, despite being only a few minutes walk from the station and town centre.
