Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered basic but very clean rooms, worth the money, however, noise from a late-night party was a downside. The service was friendly and accommodating, even offering discounted executive suites due to a maintenance issue. The location was a bit out of town but convenient for specific events, though additional transport costs were incurred. The dining experience was adequate but could use improvement in quality and variety. Overall, a value-for-money stay with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel's location is superb, nestled within a lovely housing estate and close to the wedding we attended. The rooms, though they can get hot during summer, were cozy with the option to adjust the temperature. The service from the staff was exceptional, with their assistance in arranging taxis and always greeting us with a smile.
Upon arrival, the room was a bit cold, and a fan would have been helpful on that muggy evening. Despite needing updates, the room was very spacious.
