My daughter and her friend received a happy birthday note and treats in the room upon arrival. It was a nice touch. The staff were very good, our stay was perfect. The leisure facilities, including the swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room, are amazing. The hotel location is ideal for traveling. It is close to town.
The pillows provided were lumpy. They need replacement to improve comfort.

solid hotel experience!

lovely staffsuper clean roomsconvenient locationunexpected pool policy
The staff proved lovely throughout my stay. the rooms were indeed super clean, showing great attention to detail. the hotel's location offers easy access to transportation. A bus stop is only a short walk away. from there, direct routes into the city are available.
honestly, the pool policy requiring swimming caps was a bit unexpected. i didn't have one, so i missed out on using the pool. it would be good to know this beforehand.
