Great location, great hotel, needs improvements
Really friendly staff, nice breakfast
NEGATIVES - Plug socket for hairdryer is literally on the floor, and if like me you cannot bend so low, you cant use the hairdryer in front of the mirror, or plug in the iron, certainly not guest friendly and i would not stay again

Walking distance from bus ststion
Its a 5mins walk from the bus station,
Entering into the hotel you are met with friendly receptionist.
They were very accommodating to my requests, breakfast is a hot and cold buffet
Only downfall you can smell cooking in your room , they could do with a good fan extractor to eliminate the cooking smells
Other than that it s good place to stay .

Room was not what i thought I had booked , Expected a bath but got a shower, but adequate, a double and a fold down single bed, enough for our one night stay, room was warm, but the only complaint was that being on the first floor you have the subway every 10-15 minutes going by. If I stay again I would request a higher floor ,
Breakfast was excellent, a varied choice to suit everyone, and the staff were very helpful and approachable.
