They overbooked, no actual room available.
I arrived to be told I had been rebooked into another hotel, which was not as new or nice and was in a less convenient location. No attempt was made to contact me prior and no refund or anything was offered.

Easy and helpful check in with a lovely lady at the front desk. We were lucky enough to get a room upgrade since the room we booked wasn’t clean or available. Lovely quiet, clean, warm room with a beautiful outlook. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful with lovely staff. Great to have parking option available, though we were lucky to get one due to limited availability and it was at extra cost. All in all a lovely overnight get away with great access to the city centre a very short walk away.
