Really good Stay Experience

newspaper theme room size breakfast variety central situation

I appreciated the newspaper theme present throughout the room. I enjoyed the room size, the shower, and the comfortable bed. The breakfast buffet provided a good variety of options. The hotel's central situation was also convenient.

The rolling wardrobe door lacked fitted drawers, my clothes just lay on a shelf.

Location

9/10

The hotel has a central location. The proximity to the theatre is a distinct advantage for those interested in performances. I also found it useful when visiting family residing in the area.

Facilities

9/10

The hotel is clean and well-kept. I saw that the hotel retained original features of the building. Stylish furniture creates a pleasant environment, I think. The bar is stylish, it is near the entrance.

Rooms

9/10

The room was bright and spacious. A mural on the wall enhanced its appeal. There was a coffee machine, I noted. The offer of tea and coffee with a coffee maker was good.

Service

9/10

The staff was friendly and helpful . The check-in process was efficient. I was allowed an early check-in, really convenient. The staff seemed willing to help with any request.
