"A grand old style classical hotel and everything that goes with it. Beautiful. It is situated in an area which does not have many restaurants but mainly fast food outlets, so if you want to explore, be prepared for a 15 minute walk."

10/10 Excellent
"The staff was very helpful and responsive. The only serious issue was that the shower in the room had no shower head. Therefore the water poured out of the shower as if it was a hose. Naturally this flooded the floor completely. As we were staying only one night and this occurred in the morning nothing could be done. When checking out the staff was attentive and said they would attend to this immediately."
