The room was very clean and spacious. The person working at the desk was incredibly kind and answered all of my phone questions with patience and care. I just regret not asking him his name because I would like to give him a special mention. The location and cleanliness of the hotel would definitely make me choose it again. It has parking and that is also a great perk.

Our one night stay here was very comfortable and quiet. Whilst our room was very basic and a little aged it was clean, the sheets crisp and the bed large and comfy. The hotel has amazing character and a really good vibe especially the rooftop area. The staff were so friendly, helpful and efficient. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast - delicious omelette and coffee, and a great woodfire pizza dinner. Thank you, we look forward to returning.

Our room (as most were) was right next to a busy bar restaurant that was noisy until after midnight. Also, I unfortunately believe that someone spiked my water as I lay by the pool and became very disoriented and sick. The pool area can be accessed by anyone in the general public so I would not recommend this property to any single or solo female traveller for safety concerns.

Lots of construction on street, not the hotel’s fault but started at 6:55 am and could be heard on 3rd floor very well. Also noisy just because it’s downtown and pool/bar/restaurant are very close on same level. Also told front desk that floor in room is very dirty. Came out of shower with clean feet, walk to bed and they were black.

The room was nice but a little smaller than I had imagined. The hotel itself is lovely however all the rooms are located around a central pool and bar/restaurant area so may get loud on busy nights. Luckily for us it was a quiet night. The restaurant on site is amazing with great food and drinks options. The only slight inconvenience was the car parking was difficult to find, I would recommend asking for directions prior to arrival.

Room was clean but very small. Didn’t think it was good value for money. All the rooms are located around the pool and bar area so can be quite noisy. There is a good restaurant, parking and lifts. Reception staff was friendly and helpful. I wouldn’t stay on a Friday or Saturday night as next door to night clubs. Unless yr going clubbing of course
