the staff was very friendly.
The room was too small, the price didn't seem justified. i think it was only based on the location, honestly. we had to pay extra for a full english breakfast. I didn't like that.

Okay, but not excellent
small roomextra breakfast cost
The room was really small. I felt a bit claustrophobic. breakfast wasn't included as I thought. They only provided a small selection of granola for free. If you wanted a proper breakfast, you had to pay extra. It felt a bit cheap, to be honest.
