Very friendly checkin. The property is very central so can walk to everything. Rooms are quite new and have everything you need including lots of parking. Would definitely stay there again.

Bathroom very tiny. Needs at least more towel rails / hooks & shower curtain. Considering price of apartment, the complimentary house wine is rubbish & upsizing to a pint wouldnt be too much to ask. Staff amazing. Would definitely stay again.
