“Close to everything. Public transport in front of the hotel.”
“Loved the location, but it was very noisy. Staff was good, but claimed we didn't reserve a room for 3 beds, which we did, and put my son on a pull out couch which was very uncomfortable when the reservation stated a double and a twin.”
“We were given a free upgrade to an excellent top floor river view apartment. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We found the breakfast room very tranquil and the range of items available varied and enjoyable.”
“Lovely view, close to old town, just across the bridge. The complimentary public transport ticket was very useful.”
