The hotel's central location offers easy access, and some found the checkout time convenient and the overall value good.

immaculate stay

The room felt brand new. I found the beds and pillows especially comfortable. Check-in and check-out used a very simple process, i think. The modern room felt BEAUTIFUL, and i found it very clean.
Finding the sign in the rear car park at night proved difficult. I think some additional lights would help.

really good shower and pleasant room

rainfall partcomplete privacycar park
i found the shower room really good. it included a rainfall part and a separate adjustable shower head (a feature i really appreciated). the room looked newly painted and it was pleasant. i experienced complete privacy since the rooms are accessed from the rear of the building, so there is no need to enter the main bar or restaurant area.
it was difficult to spot the sign in the rear car park. better lighting would improve visibility. the beds were slightly wobbly.
