Guest Emotional Experience

Perfect for Finding FriendsBustling bar!

“Yes there's a busy bar downstairs (and outside our window: we were on the first floor) but it's just people having a fun night out and there was no trouble, no excessive noise, and everything started shutting down after 11pm and was quiet by 11:30.”

The staff was friendly and the hotel was easy to find.

My room felt quite outdated, and I noticed paint flaking off the walls. Some ceiling tiles were loose, and the room did not resemble the photos online. I also found the bed to be quite hard, so I did not sleep well.
