First time at this hotel and I enjoyed my time. Great position. Easy to walk most places I want to go and close to tram for those hot days when you’d rather not walk. Staff were helpful and friendly. Amenities- restaurants and bars are reasonably priced and have a welcoming feel. Good hours too.

This hotel offers reasonable value for money. The staff were courteous and helpful and the room was pleasant. The design of the bathroom allowed water to splash on the floor and having to step up into a rather narrow shower may cause difficulty for some.
