Gorgeous view from the rear balcony. Great staff. But rooms are in bad need of a refresh. It’s fine if you’re not looking for a fancy room.

Breakfast was good. Front desk stuff polite and very helpful. Cleaning average. Strong cleaning detergent was used in our room and we had hard time sleeping due to the strong detergent smell. Sheets were not changed after room cleaning. We stayed for 2 nights. We booked 2 double rooms. One had a balcony but the other one didn’t.

We stayed in a room with an extended balcony and had a gorgeous view of the city skyline. The room was clean and the staff was helpful. A full breakfast buffet was available each morning. We were a short walk from excellent restaurant away from the more touristy areas.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Extremely scared staying one night out of the planned 3 nights here after given a ground floor room and was not able to sleep all night with the family which included young children. There was mould on the floor and wall tiles and the shower was not working properly. They were unable to provide another room and have not been reachable for over two weeks to provide me with a refund. It was extremely stressful situation and photos and reviews read prior did not reflect what was expected. I would never stay here again and disappointed with how the hotel handled this. Ruined trip.
