This is a great hotel, tasty and plentiful breakfast. Microwave in the lobby was so helpful for heating evening meals - there’s a co-op and an aldi about 10 minutes walk away. Close to train station and tran stops. Friendly and helpful staff, clean room. Would stay here again.

Convenient location and value for money

The hotel offers all the basic amenities you would expect and is good value for money situated in a very central location with walkable distance from the city centre. The food was good, but could do with a bit more variety. Staff were also friendly and welcoming and the room was clean and comfortable.

Clean and friendly for a short stay

Easy check-in and friendly staff on arrival. We were only there for a night after a cancelled flight, so only there for a few hours. But we both slept well and no problems at all whilst there! Not the biggest rooms, but for the price absolutely perfect.
