the hotel has a gym available for use. a pool table was also available.. i liked the lively toiletries in the room. breakfast was great value for money.
the bed wasn't accessible from both sides. the window insulation was practically nonexistent. it did not matter if the window was closed or not. this was reflected in the noise level.

Acceptable, but small rooms and noisy surroundings
lovely staffsmall room
The staff were lovely, a definite highlight of my stay.
the ROOM was ridiculously small for the price I paid. I basically had to climb over the foot of the bed to get out, not ideal.

The staff was helpful. Rooms were nice.
The room faced a Lidl delivery area. Loud noises woke me up at 6 a.m. daily, it was disturbing. The window handle was broken, the window did not close correctly and this worsened the noise. Reception did not reply when I messaged them.

mixed experience with some drawbacks
street noise
my room also faced the street, and the noise levels were quite high (it was hard to sleep). i reported the noise issue, but it wasn't resolved . these factors detracted from what could have been a more restful visit, and i found myself pretty tired.

charming find!
comfortable bedmodern bathroomnoticeable draft
the room featured a very comfortable bed, i slept soundly. it was great to find a modern bathroom. the shower had both traditional and rain shower heads, which i appreciated after a long day.
the window let in a noticeable draft, it made the room a bit colder than i would have liked. i wish the windows provided better insulation.
