Lovely quiet stay in a great room

We stayed here for one night and found it to be overall excellent in every detail, from check-in to the condition of the room. Expect a comfortable bed, a quiet room with a pleasant outlook, a prisitine bathroom and a whisper-quiet aircon. Friendly staff on reception and check-in was quick. Free parking, and right next door to a hotel for drinks/dinner. Would definitely stay again.
