The rooms and amenities are excellent for the price, no complaints there. The staff are really friendly and helpful, kudos to them. I had a small hiccup with the room but they handled it professionally. The only downside is that City Square and Komtar are about a 15 mins walk away (not the easiest to navigate) and I had to keep using private hire cars to get there. Nevertheless, I would book with the hotel again.

So far the experience is pleasant although my family had only a night stay here. We feel very relaxed and the room is neat and clean with pleasant smell which is the area we are always looking out when selecting a place to stay while on vacation
