average stay with some drawbacks
friendly staff central location varied breakfast full car park limited drinks average room
the staff members were friendly. the hotel had a very central location near the train station. the breakfast buffet offered a nice selection of hot and cold food.
the car park was full on arrival, and i had to use an ncp car park. this resulted in an unexpected parking fee. only bottled drinks were available at the bar because the pumps were off. the room was average.

Excellent Stay at a Central Hotel
room upgrade friendly staff helpful receptionist
The hotel offered a complimentary upgrade to a superior king room. The room had a very large bed and a nice street view. All staff members were genuinely friendly and helpful. Matilda, the receptionist, greeted me with a warm smile and made check-in easy.
The walls seemed a bit thin, as I could hear noises from other rooms , disrupting my sleep. I think more soundproofing would improve the overall experience.

The bathroom radiator was quite dusty, and the carpet needed better vacuuming . the room faced a brick wall and fire escape, blocking all daylight. it seemed like a cave for the weekend. A refurbishment is necessary
