The four poster bed room was a nice touch. We hadn't realised there was a hot tub, so that was a nice touch. We didn't use the bar and outdoor seating, but they looked nice. We were quite impressed with breakfast too.

The receptionist was courteous and friendly. The apartment was clean and beautifully furnished and was great for us to stay in for a couple of nights. The paintwork needs a make over in the bedroom and bathroom and a new carpet in the bedroom but as they are renovating the outside I am assuming all this is on their to do list. It was a good stay though.

Only a short strip from the centre and parking is a real bonus. Nice building and cosy bar area. Breakfast was help yourself and had good variety. Our room was directly above reception so on the road we could hear cars. Also the telephone started to ring loudly at reception at 7am which woke us. Other than that it was nice and good value for money.
