Excellent Stay
helpful staff fresh towels modern room comfy bed
The staff helped me find local pubs to watch football before my arrival I also appreciated fresh towels and iced water with lemon at the spa. Breakfast was magnificent and it was the best I have had at a hotel in a long time. The beautiful double room was modern and very clean I also found the bed very comfy.
The bar was not open I hoped for some food and drinks upon my late arrival. The website indicated in-room dining I found this puzzling with no food available.

charming stay!
prime location bright room friendly staff
The location was prime. I stepped right into the heart of everything (it made exploring effortless!). my room was bright, airy, and meticulously clean. i found every staff member i interacted with to be genuinely friendly and eager to assist. the breakfast buffet offered numerous options. I especially appreciated the fresh fruit selection.
during my stay, the bed felt a bit lumpy, affecting my sleep quality. perhaps a newer mattress would enhance the comfort significantly. i hope the hotel addresses this issue .

The breakfast was delicious and they had everything I needed.
I expected complimentary water to be refreshed daily, but this did not happen. For the price charged, I felt this should have been offered.
