Enjoyable stay. Great breakfast. Clean room and comfortable bed. Good value for money. Soundproof room also. Disappointed in the heating unit/ air conditioner. November is a cold month and the room was cool. No heat from the unit itself, just a fan blowing air.

The room is clean and the staff are very welcoming. Only one gripe is that the window in our room felt it was open as we could clearly hear the noise outside but thankfully everything closes after 11. The room was on 3rd floor
