"Very courteous and friendly staff. Breakfast included a good variety of food. A couple of mornings when we had to leave before breakfast was served, we were given a bag of food, so we didn’t have to leave hungry. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this hotel."
"Our room was spacious and very clean and had everything we needed. The toilet was separate from the shower room which worked well for us. I didnt find it too loud other than one or two guests slamming a door, but nothing I wouldnt expect from a hotel. Staff were helpful and breakfast was similar to any other good hotel ive stayed at. Plenty of towels in the room and the beds were very comfortable. The only minor inconvenience was the AC which worked but would reset to 23 degrees overnight no matter what setting it was on. Overall great stay and I'd recommend. "
"The staff were friendly and helpful, the room and whole building were clean and everything was in good working order. The television however was old and slow- difficult to really use because of this. Otherwise it was excellent!"
