Noisy heating system and water taps , not a quiet building but a fair price. Comfortable beds and clean kitchen utensils and crockery , very good location for our needs. Limited parking spaces just next door at Holiday Inn

8.6/10 Excellent! (489 reviews)
Pleasantly surprised at how nice this property was. It would have definitely got 5 stars apart from the renovation to the lift. This didn't detract and would book again.
