Staff was very nice and hotel was clean. In a perfect location. The rooms were EXTREMELY SMALL- comfy but a bit too small to my liking. They had a big bfast bar for the morning with lots of seating.

I had to make several trips to reception to change key room, didn’t work. Had to wait for a long time until we had another room. To much noise in the morning for some people out side of the building on strike and finally parking lot kind of far from hotel
