I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, with its cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The rooms were basic but clean and provided everything I needed. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to assist me. The location, although not ideal being in a dirty alley behind a pub, was surprisingly convenient with easy access to bars and restaurants. The dining experience was satisfactory, especially with the delicious offering of a steaming wok of prawns. The facilities were adequate, but nothing extravagant.

The hotel is in a superb location, making it easy to catch a bus to the airport and close to a newly renovated pub. The rooms are comfortable but have a shared bathroom, and the service in assisting guests is fantastic. However, the dining options, especially for those wanting the freshest fish, can be improved. The facilities are top-notch, offering modern amenities for a great value.
