Delicious Breakfast

I was thoroughly impressed by the breakfast offerings. The variety was excellent, featuring fresh ingredients that made each morning a delight. Homemade smoothies were a standout, providing a refreshing start to the day.

Easy Parking

Parking was a breeze with the limited spaces right at the hotel and an overspill area just across the street. It made our arrival and departure stress-free, allowing us to focus on our stay rather than on parking issues.

Stylish En-suite

The en-suite bathroom was a highlight of our stay, featuring a large tub and an overhead shower that provided excellent pressure. It was clean, stylish, and a perfect spot to unwind after a busy day exploring.
