A Decent Hotel

great locationfriendly staffhigh standard breakfastsmall roomlimited spacehigh price
The location of this hotel is great. It is close to the main station and an area full of restaurants. The staff were very friendly and cute. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was of a very high standard with lots of choice.
The rooms were quite small. There was barely space to turn around. I would expect more space in comparison with other hotels in the same price range. That was about it for the benefits.
