The hotel was decent but had some issues. The room had cleanliness issues, including a leak stain on the ceiling and a strange kettle-type setup. The price was fair, but there were maintenance problems and no toiletry replenishments. The location was convenient for my visit but lacked privacy due to staff smoking in the yard.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were very spacious and gorgeous, and I especially enjoyed spending time in the beer garden soaking up the sun. Surprisingly, it was very quiet despite our room being next to the bar, which was a nice bonus.

The hotel rooms were spacious and smart, with lovely shower rooms, but had a few problems such as non-working amenities and lack of toiletry replenishments. The small window opened to a confined staff smoking area, reducing privacy. On the positive side, the rooms were quiet despite being near the bar.
