Spacious and very clean room, really liked the coffee machine as opposed to just a kettle and instant coffee. The restaurant at the hotel is middle-eastern so it didn't have a lot of options for my kids. I would stay at this hotel again.

He looked at the bathroom and bed and said No”. He said he had 11hrs sleep. Thank you for making our quests stay memorable.
