I was more than happy with all aspects of my staff. It would be nice if there was a restaurant as at 75 I wasn't prepared to go out on the evenings for food however overall a very pleasant stay and I would stay there again.

Pro's: staff are amazing, so polite and helpful, could not fault them. Location is perfect for shops/market and restaurants/bars. Cons: could do with a refurb, rooms are quite dated with all the dark furniture. Cleaning needs abit more attention to detail, we had lots of dust in our room. And finally the TV bracket on the wall was broke so you couldn't angle the TV for a better view. All in all did the job we needed it for as only stayed for two nights but would probably not stay here again.
