Room was reasonably clean. There were cereal crumbs under the edge of the bed which imI only found because i dropped something and had to get it from under the bed. Very quiet. Staff were helpful.

Great service, room was very clean and tidy - only issue was the air conditioner wasn't working very well at all, likely in need of a service.
Otherwise perfect.

The gentlemen on reception was welcoming and helpful. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean and tidy and well resourced. I stayed on the 4th floor and there was no traffic noise. I have reviewed some of the other comments made by past guests and must admit that my experience was the total opposite of some of the negative feedback I sighted. The facility appeared to be very well run and professional. I was extremely happy with the stay and will most definitely be a returning guest.
