    delicious restaurant

    This place suits me perfectly! The free wi-fi, friendly bar area, and delicious restaurant meals always impress me. During my first stay, the staff gave me the best local taxi tip, which I still remember. I can't wait to come back for Christmas!

    dedicated staff
    excellent breakfast
    disorganized wedding
    insufficient staffing
    cramped venue

    The staff demonstrated remarkable dedication during heavy rain, maintaining a positive attitude while managing flooding issues. Our room provided exceptional comfort with a king-size bed and a well-designed layout. Breakfast was also excellent, with a variety of delicious dishes to choose from. the overall management of the wedding event felt disorganized, with insufficient staffing and issues regarding the venue's layout, which detracted from the experience.

    comfy room
    friendly staff

    Family with children, beware of the restaurant

    The room was large and comfy, perfect for kids and a bit of chaos. The staff were friendly and brought us extra towels without blinking an eye.

    It was not inexpensive, but still okay for what we needed.

    The room's air conditioning was difficult to adjust, leading to discomfort.

    riverside views
    friendly staff
    quality breakfast
    dated décor
    limited amenities

    I really enjoyed my stay, especially the riverside views from my comfortable room. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure everything went smoothly. The dining experience was a highlight, with good quality breakfast options to start the day off right.

    The hotel felt a bit dated in some areas.

    pleasant stay with a great view

    The room was well maintained and offered a lovely view of the river. The staff in the breakfast area were friendly and attentive throughout my stay.

    great view
    friendly staff
    dated decor
    uncomfortable furnishings

    While the view from my room was lovely and the staff were genuinely friendly, the dated decor and uncomfortable furnishings left much to be desired. Wi-Fi issues and an old-fashioned bathroom really detracted from the experience, but the breakfast was a highlight worth noting.

    friendly reception
    comfortable lounge
    good breakfast
    disappointing meal
    limited dining options

    I enjoyed my stay. The reception was friendly and quick. The lounge was comfortable, and I appreciated the snack and drink service. The breakfast had a good range and quality. I dined at the hotel, but the meal was disappointing. One dish was cold and had to be sent back. It was frustrating having a bad meal ruin my experience, especially since I expected more for the price. I felt lonely being single and so far from home.

    The evening meal was disappointing. The location didn’t have many dining options outside the hotel.

    outdated room
    loud noise

    the hotel was nice n comfy. we got upgraded to a bigger room which was super nice, and the bed was massive! the shower was good too, real strong! staff was friendly n helpful, which made our stay even better.

    the room we were in at first was a bit outdated n there was a really loud noise from the radiator. also, the temp in the shower was hard to control, it was either too hot or too cold.
