Would happily stay here again!
Pros:

Modern, clean and nicely decorated. Lots of nice touches and amenities in the room. The manager and staff were super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also great. Eggs cooked perfectly!

Cons:

Being the top floor but I’m nitpicking. It was also pretty noisy due to construction workers the next morning but these things re outwith the hotels control

Tutto eccellente
Pros:

Colazione top, struttura vicina al centro

Cons:

Attenzione al parcheggio convenzionato. Chiedete alla struttura PRIMA di entrare in parcheggio con la macchina per avere il prezzo agevolato.
