Parking was excellent plenty of spaces. Room was clean and functional though i found the bed very hard. Receptionist was a joy, very pleasant and helpful. Excellent role model. Barman was slow. Breakfast was fine, no complaints and the restaurant staff was very polite and professional. Overall a good stay. I will definitely stay here again.

The room was clean and well-maintained, and the staff were excellent—friendly, attentive, and professional throughout our stay. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, with a great selection; my children especially loved it. Parking can be a bit challenging if you arrive late. There is free street parking available overnight, but charges apply after 8:00 am, so it’s worth planning ahead.
