8/10 Good
"Nice big bed for a double room, easy to facilitate our night stay and we made use of the sauna and steam room. the breakfast buffet was surprisingly good compared to other hotel buffets ive had, it was very fresh even when eating a couple hours after open. The exterior made it seem a bit dingy but i thought the hotel was of a very decent standard and we enjoyed our stay!"
