It was nice. The dryer was broken and we wanted to do a load of laundry before heading to New Zealand!

I've stayed here many years ago, and cannot believe it's still here. Staff were friendly. My room was a little bit further out from the reception area. The room itself was quite spacious, definitely clean and tidy. Only a short drive to Salamanca Place.
