It really surprises me to see some of the negative reviews for this hotel, because it offers fantastic value and has such a great spirit. The staff are brilliant, consistently friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The location is perfect, making everything easily accessible. Some people describe the rooms as dated. Ours may not have been ultra-modern, but the décor was tasteful and comfortable, and we had everything we needed. Yes, you might occasionally hear noise from neighbouring bathrooms, and the internet isn’t the fastest, but these are minor points in the grand scheme. The television was modern and a good size, and the daily happy hour was a lovely touch, two complimentary drinks each, which we really appreciated. Breakfast was a real highlight. The buffet had so much choice, and it was refreshing to see proper scrambled eggs rather than powdered alternatives. The waiters were attentive and genuinely friendly, and having your own coffee pot brought to the table as soon as you sit down was a great detail. There’s even a Starbucks coffee and a breakfast-to-go option if you’re in a hurry. Overall, this hotel delivers excellent value for money. If you’re paying top prices, you might expect absolute perfection, but when you’re paying a fraction of that, it’s hard to fault what’s on offer here. We’d happily stay again.
