Reviews
The elevator was clunky and the hallway to our room smelled nasty. Our room was clean and smelled fresh but the bed was too squishy and non supportive. The walls were thin, we could hear everything from the neighboring rooms. We will not stay here again.
A little tied but comfortable and friendly hotel in location that could have slightly better facilities and transport links. Breakfast a little expensive, but general good value for money.
