Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a convenient location right in the center of town. The service is top-notch with a lovely welcome drink upon arrival. The dining experience provides various options to cater to different needs, although the thin crispy fries were a letdown. The facilities are well-maintained, making my stay enjoyable overall.
The hotel is a gem right in the heart of the town, offering convenience and a classy courtyard-style beer garden with a few drinks. The rooms are modern and spacious, promising a comfortable stay. However, the dining options could be more diverse, and the Wi-Fi is not complimentary.
