a good stay!
triple room bar food helpful staff
The triple room was very good. bar food arrived fast and it tasted great. i found the staff helpful and polite. They were always ready to assist with a smile.
I thought the room window looked like it had not been properly cleaned. bird droppings covered it. It made looking out the window rather unpleasant.

decent stay but breakfast needs improvement
spacious room clean room salty eggs tinned fruit
the room was spacious and clean.
The breakfast was a letdown. The scrambled eggs were too salty, and the fresh fruit selection included only tinned options. This was quite disappointing

I was happy with the room size, it felt spacious. the bathroom had both a bathtub and a separate shower, very convenient. i found the underground parking very useful. My motorcycle was safely stored. the breakfast variety was a lovely surprise with many delicious options.
the elevator made a slight humming noise, though it wasn't overly distracting.
