The staff impressed me with their attentiveness, and the presence of Darker Kelly's bar next door is definitely a plus for evening entertainment.

I found many food options within a short walk of the hotel. The staff were really helpful and accommodating. The rate was reasonable and the room included an iron and ironing board, WHICH I appreciated.
The price was too expensive, in my opinion. Our room seemed a bit dated in general. I noticed the bathroom did not have a window.

The staff was very friendly and helpful . The location was central, placing me within walking distance of many attractions.
I was disappointed by the noise levels. I could hear everything from the rooms next to mine. One afternoon, there was drilling next door as I wanted to rest (it was very unpleasant). The walls really need better soundproofing.
