Reviews
The staff was nice and breakfast was very good. The location is excellent.
Great location which has a premium but for the price we found it quite disappointing, more cleaning and repairs required.
The bedrooms are reasonable and comfortable.
I would highly recommend this hotel as it’s close to town and all the shops and restaurants.
