- "Super " - "Good location. Standard room. Does what it says on thr tin " - "Basic hostel. Small, but nice room. A plus that there was a French balcony." - "There wasn’t any information on the booking to tell us how to check in. I had to ring the host to find that check in was at a hotel down the road at #10. The electronic keys didn’t always work which was a bit inconvenient. There was very little room in the rooms with 3 beds crammed in to a space only made for2 really meaning that you couldn’t even open a window. Free parking for motorbikes in certain places but it’s a one way street so it can be tricky. All in all great location to walk into the centre and if you are looking for budget and don’t mind being crammed in then it’s a good place to stay. "

" - "The property was exactly what you expected from a hostel but better" - "We had such a fantastic stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming, professional, and genuinely friendly, which immediately set the tone for a relaxing visit. The check-in process was smooth and effortless, and we felt taken care of right away. The room was spotless, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with all the little details that make a big difference—comfortable bedding, modern amenities, and a calming atmosphere that made it easy to unwind after a long day. Housekeeping did a wonderful job keeping everything fresh and tidy throughout our stay. The hotel’s facilities were equally impressive. Whether it was enjoying the pool, grabbing a bite at the on-site restaurant, or simply relaxing in the lounge areas, everything felt well-maintained and inviting. The location was another highlight—convenient to local attractions, dining, and transportation, yet quiet enough to feel like a peaceful getaway. What truly stood out, though, was the level of service. Every staff member we encountered went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, and their warm hospitality really made us feel at home. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, enjoyable, and memorable stay. "
