the staff were helpful and friendly. the breakfast buffet had a great selection of hot and cold items. i also enjoyed using the leisure centre facilities with a gym, a pool and a sauna! it was a bonus.

my room faced the street and the noise from passing cars at night was noticeable. i suggest soundproofing windows or requesting a room away from the street to improve sleep quality.
