Location excellent for access to train station and buses. Clean room and very easy to control heat and air. Friendly helpful staff during 2 night stay. Left my glasses in the room when I checked out. Returned to me carefully wrapped and labelled. Would definitely stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Friendly staff, clean room. Good variety for the breakfast.
Clean and a very quiet room. Staff are very nice and friendly.,
Good location by the railway station and many restaurants and convenience stores close by.
Very impressed with the hotel and location, just a short stroll into town, the staff were so friendly, especially the Portuguese lady in the breakfast room, we will definitely be back.
This place is perfect! It’s conveniently located next to the station, making it super easy to explore all the scenic spots and shops around. The clean and designable styles are great for the stay.
Convenience, breakfast and communal areas were excellent. Bedroom was small and beds a little uncomfortable ....but all in all good value and will use again as super convenient
