Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room had an amazing comfy bed and a very large, comfortable bed. The little tea making area was a nice touch, and the shower in the bathroom was amazing. However, I felt the price could have been a bit more competitive for the value offered.
The hotel is in a lovely area by the river and offers a nice shower in the bathroom. While the tea making area in the room is a nice touch, the facilities could be improved.
The hotel offers a cozy stay with a comfortable bed but with a slightly intrusive bar in the bedroom. The location is central and convenient, although some noise may be present. The service is excellent with additional paid shuttle services available. The dining experience features delicious wood-fired pizzas, but additional facilities could enhance the overall stay.
