quiet and spacious!
spacious studio friendly staff
my studio was really spacious and had all the equipment i needed for cooking. i appreciated the convenience of a dishwasher in the room. the staff was super friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. cleaning was done regularly, and i always had fresh, clean towels.
i noticed some noise from the hallway at night, mostly from kids running around. one evening, a group of young people arrived very late and played music loudly. i think the hotel should manage noise better to ensure a peaceful stay for all guests.
Location

the hotel is located just on the edge of town it is a short ten-minute walk to the town center. there is a large car park available at the front of the building. this made it easy to explore the surrounding areas by car.

clean apartment great balcony superb staff noisy hallway running kids noisy groups
I found the apartment very clean. The balcony was a great size. Staff were superb and accommodating.
The hallway had tiles so I heard a lot of noise from the reception in the evening. I also heard kids running through the hallway at night. I think they should avoid groups making noise late at night.
