The hotel was very comfortable and in a convenient part of the city, within a short walk to the centre. Shops and bars nearby. We managed to park nearby. Bear in mind that the bar closes at 11:00 pm so if you are looking for a late evening drink, make sure you order early.

Great place and spot

This was a nice place, comfy bed, good shower and towels ( full size ) not the half size some places have. Breakfast was good, walking distance to so many sites and food and drink. We would definitely stay here again
