Reviews and Ratings
Staying here during summer is a must for a comfortable sleep. The rooms offer excellent en-suite facilities, an oversized bathtub, and a luxurious bed; however, be cautious of mold and cleanliness issues.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were not perfect with a few issues like holes in the walls, lifting carpets, and uncomfortable pillows. The lack of door locks from the inside made me feel unsafe, and the cheap toilet roll was a letdown. However, the breakfast was tasty, and the off-street parking was convenient. Overall, I would rate it a 3 out of 10; not impressive for an extended stay.
The hotel had some highlights with its off-street parking and good breakfast, but the room experience left much to be desired due to constant heating and lack of responsiveness from staff. Despite that, the facilities were impressive, making it a convenient place to stay.
