Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had clean, quiet, and comfortable rooms, but the location was noisy being right next to a busy road. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing maps and bus timetables. The dining experience had a good variety but lacked in fresh items at certain times. The facilities were efficient but the noise from the delivery area was a downside.
I ended up booking two rooms by mistake but was pleasantly surprised by the clean and fresh atmosphere. Although the view wasn't the best, the comfortable bed and spacious shower made up for it. The service was exceptional, even under difficult circumstances, and the staff were polite and extremely helpful. The location was slightly off-centre, requiring taxis for town visits, but the overall accessibility was decent. The dining experience was a disappointment in terms of breakfast but made up for it with delicious pasta. Despite the challenging breakfast, the value for money overall was good.
