"The hotel was fantastic. It was in a great location close to transport and with plenty of dining options nearby. There was a bakery downstairs so that was a perfect destination for breakfast. The rooms were clean and a decent size. We booked 2 rooms and requested that they be next to one another and this was easily accommodated beforehand. Highly recommend this hotel!"
