Wonderful Stay!

great locationhelpful staffsafe storageblocked basin
The location was great. It's very close to everything. I found the staff to be very helpful with my requests and they stored my bike safely. Breakfast included lots of choice and it was just a short walk into town!
The hand basin was blocked and also the towels weren't always replaced. Two Nespresso pods per day weren't generous. I would have preferred ordinary tea sachets.

Adequate hotel experience

central locationhelpful staffinconsistent housekeepinglimited tea
The location proved central, giving me easy access to both the city center and the train station. I found the staff at the reception helpful. They provided useful information when I needed it.
The housekeeping was somewhat inconsistent. I noted shampoo was not always restocked , and the daily cleaning could have been more thorough. I had difficulty getting some ordinary tea options , like Earl Grey , as only sugary varieties were available.
