Superb Location
Pros:

The property is ideally situated within close proximity to the city center, offering convenient pedestrian access to all amenities.

Cons:

Our accommodations presented some challenges, specifically regarding the low light levels and the absence of safety handrails in the bathrooms, particularly given the shower-over-bath design. Due to my husband's mobility limitations, the front desk team efficiently resolved our concerns by moving us to a more appropriate and secure room.

Great city break option
Pros:

Fantastic location for a city break. Very spacious room.

Cons:

Bathroom is a little tight if you are tall. Couldn’t cast to TV to watch streaming services (more common these days). Room was a bit warm even with everything turned off but others won’t mind that.
