I stayed here previously all the way back in 2008. The property has received an upgrade and is still a lovely spot. Each one of the staff was extremely kind and helpful. I also really appreciated the glass water bottles and refillable toiletries in the bathroom, which avoids the excess use of plastic.

Fairly decent low budget hotel. It was clean with a decent bar and restaurant. The hot water was only warm and they had wifi connection issues throughout our stay, which was irritating. Staff were helpful and the location is on a busy street but nearby banks and electronics shops.

The room was ok, but our safe and fridge did not work. Our room key stopped working twice and we had to get it replaced. Loud birds (crows?) outside all night/morning. Lower water pressure in the showers. Not the best value for money. Probably wouldn’t stay here again. Staff were pleasant.
