Great except rubbish parking
Everything was great except one thing - the parking! Don’t be fooled when they say there is private parking. It is a small car park which was overflowing when we arrived. This meant I had to park five mins away with a small child and luggage - not ideal. Everything else was good, the room, service and breakfast.

Very good. Room clean and had everything you needed. Reviews were right about the layout of the bathroom making it a little small, but it functioned just fine.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The family liked that the hotel had a pool table. The room had no air-conditioning. If the window was closed to block out noise of traffic or the very loud party in the vicinity, the room became unbearably hot. Bed very firm for my grandson but it was okay for me.

A very conveniently placed hotel with excellent parking. The decor is very dark, but appears to be clean. The staff were friendly. Within our room which was neat, clean and tidy, the bathroom was minute but for a short stay, it was okay.

Clean hotel, pleasant stay
Clean hotel, nice big lobby and friendly staff. Room was decent sized and cleaned each day. The only criticism is that the room was very hot overnight and it wasn't possible to open the window very much. A fan was provided in the room which helped somewhat

Good for one night.
Great service and a really nice reception area. Rooms are clean but small. Very limited space in the bathroom area. Felt claustrophobic. Odd that in this day and age, the room has no AC but a fan is provided. Overall good for a one night stay.

Very friendly and helpful staff and cleanliness, utility what was expected of an Ibis. The only issue was the noise from.an adjacent room where a couple were clearly indulging in a marathon, sexual and noisy session that kept us awake 🙄
