Everything was perfect only for the €50 charge for the extra hour this morning.
Pros:

The breakfast was excellent. The location was brilliant.

Cons:

We booked the night for my aunts 80th birthday. As checkout was 11.00 am I asked for an extra hour for her. I was charged €50. As there was no sign of the housekeeping staff on our floor even when we were checking out I thought this was mean. We had lunch, dinner & drinks & left a generous tip.

Big Comfortable bed- hot shower-- delicious breakfast choices including my French toast with bacon

Pros:

Location was excellent. Decor was modern and clean. Receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable with all necessary amenities. Bathroom was clean and spacious, the shower was nice with good water pressure and all soaps and shampoos were fresh and nicely Scented. I didnt try the bar or restaurant so can't say too much, but I walked through it looked quite nice, with a good atmosphere.
