The location is central and within walking distance to many destinations. The rooms are comfortable.
Moreover, the electric car charging stations on the premises were very useful."

Very clean hotel, staff were very polite and always someone on hand if needed. Rooms are a good size and well equipped, sadly for me I found the beds very uncomfortable, the mattress is very firm, pillows uncomfortable and the duvet wasn’t big enough for the bed so everytime one of us moved the duvet uncovered the other. It was a shame as we couldn’t fault anything else, the location was fab and close to everything but without the noise of the town disturbing you but just didn’t sleep well due to the bed.
