"Really nice hotel. Very comfortable. Great black out blinds for sleeping.
The only negative thing I would say is the mattress was very firm to the point of hard, which made sleeping a bit uncomfortable.
Everything else was really lovely and stylish and I loved all the original art throughout the property."
"Only got to stay for a single night, but it was an absolutely delightful stay. The staff was friendly, the food and drinks were delicious, and the facilities were a highlight of my trip!
My only regret is that this was the end of my trip so I only got to stay for one night."
"The hotel is a 2minutes walk to the Bus Station. It is nowhere near the city centre.
Check in is upstairs so not great if you have luggage. On my arrival no help was offered with my bag but help was offered on departure. My room lock would not work on arrival but the next day at my insistence it was fixed.
The little restaurant was good and inexpensive. The breakfast was also pretty good."
