The impression from the outside is minimal but inside the hotel is pleasantly decorated, comfortable and welcoming. The staff is very helpful, polite and cheerful. The breakfast was great and coffee, tea or water and light refreshments were always available in the lobby. The room we had was small but adequate and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was a... more

We just returned from 3 days at this wonderful hotel. It was an excellent choice. The staff is so helpful and tries very hard to ensure that your stay is a pleasant one.

This hotel has one thing only which makes it worth staying in, that is its excellent central position.
