The room was clean and comfortable. We were a little worried having read the reviews but we found our room to be ok. The bathroom however was a bit grimey and the shower head did not stand once the shower was turned on. The bed was comfortable, hairdryer was good as was the iron.

It exceeded our expectation. Fully renovated. Our room was clean and well presented. Free breakfast. Helpful staff. Car parking is challenging when you have a bigger car but we managed to park with no issues as we arrived early and not many cars at the car park.

Staff is friendly and helpful. Room is spacious for 2 of us. The only not so pleasant issue for me is: 1. The WC area is rather small. Basin and the small counter top is right next toilet seat (have to be careful not to drop item from the countertop). Towel holder is right in front of toilet seat. 2. No mouth rinsing cups provided (have to use the glasses meant for drinking) 3 Can hear next door guests (talking and TV).
