Very comfortable hotel with zany decor and very well located for sight seeing and catching the tram. The breakfasts were great and also appreciated free drinks all day at main hotel. Staff extremely helpful. Our only problem was the cold room. Eventually worked out why it was so cold…. The thermostat is in the tiny hallway and gives false reading for rest of the room making the air on come on all the time.

We loved our stay! The staff was incredibly helpful and kind, and even provided an adapter to use since we forgot to bring one. Breakfast was good, and it wasn't an issue being across the street in another hotel. The room was really nice, with a spacious bathroom that actually seemed pretty luxurious. We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely hotel, great location. Comfy large bed. Only negative is there is very little storage. No drawers at all and just a small open wardrobe with half a dozen hangers. Had to live out of my suitcase.
