Best for

Tips to get it right
- Ask for an interior room if you are sensitive to street noise, a few reviews mention traffic sound from the main street.
- Check whether breakfast is included in your rate, it is one of the most praised features but depends on the booking.
- If you need a lot of space, look at the suite categories carefully, one guest found the suite smaller than expected for the price.
- Book directly with the hotel to confirm any accessibility needs, one review mentions a few stairs to reach the sleeping area.

The bit the hotel does not tell you
The hotel has been renovated with care according to one repeat guest who stayed in 2019 and again recently. The suite layout with a sofa bed in the living area works for families but leaves little floor space once the bed is open, so if you are travelling with two children and lots of luggage, ask about room size before you book.
