A clean and modern hotel in a great location with service improvements to be made
Pros:

The location is great: right in the city centre. We had a junior suite which was nice with a small balcony. The hotel is quiet, clean and the room was comfortable. The staff is young and helpful.

Cons:

A few things put us off:
The hotel says it has a parking but you actually have to park on the street with a payable voucher the hotel will provide or in a public covered car park.
We were travelling with our dog and had to pay €25 per day which is fine but the hotel provides nothing for the dog; I had to request bowls for my dog. Usually when hotels charge for dogs, they provide a bed, bowls and sometimes even treats
The maid came to clean the room at 2pm as we were napping when we had actually been out all morning…
Breakfast is ok with slow staff
