"Loved the old hotel, staff was excellent, and the location was amazing. But, our room was considerably smaller than the photos made it out to be. Stay here, but book the biggest room you can!"
"The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was small, but clean and comfortable. The location was perfect for what we were doing and I would definitely stay there again."
"Great hotel, easy check in and staff were very informative - happy to give advice on best locations to visit. Secured parking as also a great benefit. "
"On the whole, we were very happy with our stay here. However, there was one issue that caused us a problem in our apartment (306). Sometimes, there was a strong smell of sewerage on the upper floors but at other times it was ok. We couldn't work out if it was the drains or the air con. This was reported twice to reception and was acted upon both times but was never fully resolved."
