"The hotel is very quiet, the room facilities are complete, clean, the transportation is convenient, and the front desk is warm and hospitable. The bar is very lively at night, locals are chatting, the atmosphere is very good"
Accommodation is above a busy pub, but not once did I hear any noise or was disturbed. Plenty of parking. Great room, en-suite facilities, towels & shower gel available. Tray for coffee & tea plus a television. Perfect for an overnight stay
Lovely modern accommodation but did not sleep well at all
Paper thin walls and windows
Busy road and nosey cleaners
Pillows have no support whatsoever and although there was a mattress topper there was no actual mattress protector!

In addition to the location is far from the city center, the overall is very good: new net, spacious place, well-equipped, value for money. If you come back to travel, it is an inevitable choice.
