Functional hotel, quite good location towards the airport. Maybe a bit outdated, but alright to stay for a night. Breakfast is in another building. Swimming pool is in the nearby hotel, which is good, but the info should be provided by reception.

1. The hotel we were supposed to stay at was closed and under renovation. We were directed to another hotel - no one informed me about this in andvane. (primer hotel) 2. We ordered a room with a queen bed, I received two single beds. When I said I would like to get a room with one bed, we were moved to a room with two single beds pushed together - unbelievable. 3. No room service - no one came after the first night to refill coffee or tea, change towels for clean ones, etc. 4. The refrigerator wasn't working.

Average hotel

I have stayed at this hotel before. This time the room was run down, bathroom tiles cracked, sharp under foot as grout also had cone out. Wallpaper ripped and hanging off the walls. Had requested a shower but got a bath. Moved rooms the next day and was given another room with a bath. Moved again. No apology as such. Very noisy as they had some sort of conference and many people.

Nice clean horel.

Loved the hotel. Location was not the best to walk any where.. Not any reastraunts in walking distance. Every thing is a 20 to 30 minute bus ride away. The hotel reastraunt menu was limited Bed was comfy, hotel was very clean. Breakfast was very good. Eggs were a little cold.
