Hotel and the staff were excellent very clean had all we needed and breakfast close to the river and if your ok at navigating the subway it’s right next to you which is excellent - if you want to walk to the main part of town it is a good 2km walk but other than that fantastic

Room was nice, spacious, and clean. The view was great. We came back to the room one night to a surprise slice of cake and a hand written card for my boyfriend's birthday, even though his birthday wasn't til 2 weeks later. That was very nice of the staff to go the extra mile to make our stay feel ...
