Always a comfy and convenient stay. Only feedback is the bathroom glass shelf above basin makes it difficult to wash face/rinse mouth etc and choice of tap makes it easy to splash water on floor.

Modern and cozy rooms, very clean. Make sure you ask for a room Not on main road, otherwise you hear trucks passing all night. I liked it, just the road noise made it hard to sleep.
