Patricia

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Our room was very small and the bathroom even smaller but the bed was comfy. As we were on the second floor our 2 small dogs were scared to go in the lift so we had to carry them up 4 flights of stairs. In the morning we had to carry them back down. Not at all practical really. But the breakfast was amazing.

Hotel was easy to find and in a good location near lots of things to do. Receptionist at check in was an absolute doll, very friendly and my room was even upgraded for free. The room was clean, bed soft, noise level was pretty good. The building itself is pretty old, the rooms have physical keys and old style doors and the floors are a bit creaky, but that's not a problem. Great place for the price, would absolutely stay there again.
