The location of the hotel is very close to the centre of town and all the main attractions. The only negative comments we would make is that the housemaid’s replacement of coffee capsules, tea etc was inconsistent. And there was a wedding on the rooftop bar one night that went past midnight and was very noisy even behind double glazed doors and windows.

"The room was more spacious then we expected. Washroom a great size, not a fan of the glass wall in the shower.
