I have to give 5-stars from a value for money perspective. The location is excellent, and the price was reasonable. Was a bit busy at check-in and check-out (I used a “kiosk” to check out). Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. I would stay there again.

Very comfortable beds and pillows. Sadly our room this visit attracted a lot of noise from the outside. Lighting around the mirrors not the best for getting ready for a night out either. But location is great.
