Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: A great place to stay. The location is fine and the breakfast, continental type, is perfectly adequate. Any noise from the bar/disco area is all gone by 00:00. A good sized room, en-suite, and quiet, as it was at the rear, warm and comfortable.
Negative: Sadly, I knocked a star off of my rating, as the room had not a single chair in it. Not impressed for such a large room too. Sorry.
Summary: Well worth staying at.
