I would certainly be happy to stay here again. Large rooms, comfy bed, helpful staff and food was excellent. The only thing that let my stay down was the length of time it took to check out - a long queue with two few staff and a long process, my taxi arrived and almost left it took that long. ##### Andrew Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia 1 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel is definitely a great choice.
