pretty good stay!

perfect locationnice showerspot breakfastbroken heatingfull binlimited towels
The location is perfect! it's close to all the attractions and so convenient. the room was good. The shower was really nice! the breakfast was spot on too.
The heating wasn't working in one of our rooms! and we had two rooms, so that was a bummer. no one emptied the bins. Rubbish built up in the room. we had three people in one room but only got two sets of towels! and they never got changed!

Comfortable stay near attractions

convenient locationcorner winter gardensavailable ironcoffee facilities
The location was convenient. The winter gardens are just around the corner from the hotel. I found an iron and ironing board available in my room. The room included tea and coffee making facilities. The vending machine downstairs offered a variety of snacks and drinks.
The en suite was rather small. This was a slight inconvenience.
