Good value for money

Excellent location for touring town. Easy to use the underground parking facility for €25 daily charge. Room was comfortable but very tired. We had a junior suite and the lounge area needed more cleaning. The wardrobes needed updating. The price was very reasonable. Good selection at breakfast

The staff was very friendly and the hotel is very conveniently located, a short walk away from many interesting spots. However, although this is a non-smoking property, the room smelled like somebody had smoked in it, and not just once. The kind of smoke smell that was glued to the fabrics in the room, so I had to leave the window open the entirety of my stay there. For this price you may be better off somewhere else.
