Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the atmosphere was disrupted by loud music and shouting. The service was pleasant, especially Barbara who was very helpful. The location was convenient for both work and leisure, but there were some unpleasant smells. The dining options were overpriced and the quality was disappointing. The facilities were decent despite some maintenance issues.
The hotel rooms were modern, comfortable, and lovely. The bed was quite comfortable once settled in. However, the service was lacking, with staff appearing tired and a surcharge for card payments. The location was convenient with public transport nearby, but still required a bus to reach the town center. The dining experience was subpar with limited choices and unexpected price changes.
