Ok value for money, nice staff, but a bit rundown
Easy check in and out, staff helpful and friendly. Place is not as clean as it was when I visited 6 months ago and the room I had was a bit run down. Breakfast is not a bad selection, but overpriced as it’s quite poor quality. Overall the hotel is quite good value for money though and well located near the airport. Not well located if you need to be near the centre, but the local bus service is not bad.

4/10 Fair

The hotel was okay- reception staff were polite and helpful, the room was quiet and bed was comfy. However we ate in the restaurant and it’s the worst service I have ever experienced. It took 10 minutes to even be acknowledged, every waiter walked straight past us. It took us ages to get the waiters attention to order as well. We were repeatedly ignored. There were plenty of staff and they were not full. As it was the only option to eat in the hotel we felt we had no choice- would not recommend the restaurant.
