Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room had a great walk-in shower and a surprise four-poster bed, which I really appreciated. The service was outstanding, ensuring the safety and comfort of both guests and staff. The location was convenient, just outside the West Gate and close to the town center. The dining experience was satisfactory but could use more variety in the menu. Overall, a good value for money option.
The hotel has spacious rooms with big bathrooms and high-quality linen, offering great value for money. However, the cleanliness could be improved, and towels were not always replaced promptly. The large bed provided a comfortable stay, but some attention to detail is needed in room upkeep.
