The hotel is modern, clean, and well-equipped. Breakfast was very good. There's not much within a walking distance of the hotel. Something we hadn't appreciated was that there is no free parking available on site. You can either pay to park or attempt to find street parking nearby. We chose the latter and were fortunate to find a spot within 200m or so. But the hotel didn't seem busy at the time so my guess is parking may be at a premium other times. Overall, a good hotel.

Was very noisy with the nearby construction and at night I could hear people laughing loud in the street (or on the balcony of the bar in the hotel?). Carpark is not in use so a bit annoying to use the next door carpark and lift, luckily I didn’t pack much otherwise I’d be annoyed with the walk. Wouldn’t stay here again. Was clean though and staff were helpful/ friendly.
