    This hotel is a hidden gem in the city center. The value for money is fantastic and the prices are very affordable. The staff are incredibly helpful and go above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. The rooms have a great view over the city and the little smart warm lighting inside adds a nice touch. The breakfast, although simple, is tasty and a good start to the day.

    The hotel could improve on the cleanliness of their bed covers, specifically the pillows without covers.
