The hotel is ideally located in the heart of the shopping and leisure area, making it convenient for exploring nearby towns. The room was nice and simple, but small. The service was exceptional, especially the barman who was incredibly sweet and helpful. The dining experience was light and worth the value. However, the breakfast option for an extra fee was not impressive. The hotel lacks facilities like the pool or gym, but the overall experience was pleasant due to its central location.

The hotel offers rooms of the highest standard for a 'no-Stars' hotel, although they are not too big and furnished minimally. The service is friendly and welcoming, and the location is excellent, being conveniently close to the main train station. The dining options are suitable for the price, and the overall value for money is good.
