On our first night... More

Starting with the good points: it's clean, the beds are excellent and the front desk staff are friendly and as helpful as they're able to be. The bad points: it's very shabby, the breakfast is poor (as noted by other reviewers) and the dining room staff are rude and unhelpful. The toilet flush in our bathroom defied attempts by hotel...

Points: easy to park but not guarded or in a garage. Bar Closes early with no substitue within short walking distance. Breakfast good but not quite value for money. I have stayed at this hotel previously but following a slight renovation the situation in my opinion has deteriorated.

Do not be tricked by the renewed and elegant lobby – our room was a hole, and our bathroom resembled that of an airplane, with the shower and toilet not functioning normally all the time. We had to leave our clothes in the suitcases, as there was no place to put them. As a matter of fact, one of our... More

On first sight we were pleasantly surprised by our room, but the place was let down by several annoying, if minor defects. The worst of these was that the tap in the wash basin was installed too near the wall, so that the plunger for the plug could not be fully raised and the plug not fully fitted. This was... More

This hotel is very recommended especially if you arrive the city by car. It is in the modern part of the city, but within walking distance from the charming old town. Service is friendly and rooms spacious.

There is was one good thing about this hotel: the bathroom. Shower pressure was fantastic and the bathroom was not cramped. When our car pulled up, we were confronted with a steep flight of steps to get even into the lobby. And the hotel had no one out front to offer assistance. The lobby looked nice enough as we checked... More
