Travelled with partner
Disliked: Amenities
It is time for an update to the place as it’s looking pretty worn. The jug worked but the water tasted metallic, the top of the pan didn’t fit properly, the light above the single bed was missing and the front door really was in need of a paint job. Not real value for the price.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We had the corner apartment with river views. Good value accommodation with a seperate double bedroom, comfortable twin beds in the living space (instead of a sofa bed), a lounge suite and kitchen. A little dated but perfectly fine for our needs.
