Very nice modern, clean hotel with comfortable room and very friendly and helpful staff. Restaurant a bit hit and miss in terms of prompt service but the food was generally decent (the tuna was excellent, the chicken burger was a disappointing mess that fell apart). Decent wine list and the breakfast buffet was good with plenty to offer varying tastes.
