9.6/10 Exceptional! (719 reviews)
Hotel is lovely in many ways. However it is on a main road which is noisy, late into the night. They were kind enough to move me after the first night but it was still noisy. That said, I am a light sleeper. Modern, clean hotel. Very friendly staff who seem to enjoy their work. Central location.
