“My stay was marked by its exceptional central positioning, making exploration effortless, and the attentiveness of the staff truly stood out, particularly the maintenance team's quick work retrieving a lost item. While the bedding in my suite showed some wear, the overall comfort and the thoughtful amenities, like the activity pack for children, contributed positively. It's a solid choice for city centre access, though potential guests should factor in additional costs for parking and the clean air zone.”
