The staff were very friendly. They offered good advice about the area. I enjoyed the good breakfast with a lot of fruit options. The room was also nicely decorated.
I noticed traffic noise since the hotel is close to the highway. There was no garden area. I also noted the hotel needs updating.

The breakfast was excellent. It had a fabulous panoramic view from the bar window. The staff were friendly and courteous, nothing was too much trouble. The location was good and convenient.
There was no hot water in the sink. The Wi-Fi did not work. The mattress was good quality , but it was far too firm for me.
