Michael

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was in a good location, not far from the lake and the railway station and plenty of restaurants nearby. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable but a little dated. The shower over the bath was not easiest to use as water would end up on the floor if not careful. The electrical sockets need updating to international standards, no USB sockets. It was a bit noisy from about 7am when delivery and refuse trucks were outside the hotel and the building opposite is a building site but didn't cause any real inconvenience. At most other times it was quiet. The hotel only offers breakfast as it doesn't have a restaurant and breakfast time can be busy up to 8:30am. Plenty of interesting restaurants to suit all tastes nearby.

Quite surprised by how good this hotel was. I was thinking it's only a 3 star, so wasn't expecting much. It was clean, spacious and even got a free room upgrade. The only thing I found odd was how the upgraded room had

Was clean and small
Uneventful. Not great. Not bad. Just a small clean room. We did ask for extra pillows and could not get them. The front desk didn’t know how. But she said come down to get them since she was by herself. Little bit wasted my time.
