lovely stay in the city center

helpful staffgreat locationcocktail bar
the staff were very friendly and helpful. the location was great for exploring the city. i enjoyed having extra space in the two bedroom apartment. the tv room was useful to spread out and relax (perfect for a bit of downtime).
i found the room a little noisy from the nearby bar below. this noise from the cocktail bar was quite noticeable. it was frustrating and i had to call reception about it, though they did resolve it eventually.

The location was excellent I found it very central. The beds were soft I felt very comfortable. I was able to check in early I thought it was nice.
Our room was very small I felt it was expected. I found the wardrobe too large. The shower room was very small I felt it was impracticable for a larger guest.
