Excellent value for money. Rooms quite small but still functional. Off-site parking complicates the stay and was inconvenient - particularly on the first time when we were already running late. Allow an extra half an hour on arrival and departure for this.

Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback and the star rating. We do apologise for the inconvenience about the off-site parking. At hotel we have limited parking available and works as first come first serve. Due to limited spots we had arranged off-site parking for our guests. Your feedback is very important to us and we work continuously working on areas of improvement. Thank You Kind Regards Ellen
