8.8/10 Excellent! (1,000 reviews)

Room is clean but housekeeping is a bit lax. It is in an older building and so we had a little bit of a plumbing problem. The staff was helpful to find solution quickly. Room is spacious and hotel is next to the train station and a short walk (10-15) to the center - very convenient. Love the view from the dinning room and the pub and lobby are great place to chill while we wait for our train.

Very good stay. The young lady at the front desk was particularly excellent at both her job and her personability. Room TV system could be better. Difficult to navigate and occasional drop outs. Housekeeping was very good. Will return.
