I recently stayed at this hotel and wanted to express my appreciation for the friendly staff at the front desk. They were exceptionally kind and even treated our dog with great friendliness. However, the lack of parking spaces posed a bit of an inconvenience for us, especially with children and a dog in tow. Having to park far away made the journey quite a bit longer. Despite this, the overall experience was positive, thanks to the welcoming and accommodating staff.

Really lovely, modern and tidy room. Was able to accommodate our family of 5 well. Great kitchenette with everything you need. Bed were comfortable. Great location, walking distance to shopping centre and restaurants. The only negative is no car park onsite.
