8.4/10 Very Good! (102 reviews)
Very nice little hotel. In a quiet area so not really walking distance from anything but taxis easily available. Our room was good, however, it was literally just a wooden door between our room and the restaurant which was a surprise so we could hear everything going whilst it was open. Lovely breakfast which changed every day.
