The hotel was fantastic little, but I stayed for 4 nights only. In my case they offered Wheelchair Accessible room with views of a field and 4 poster bed, as example and that was great. The location was ideal and incredible, walk from a valley and a river. Appreciated to be walk from a bus stop.

Good service, though a few employees were poorly trained. We stayed in a good-sized room that had a multi-channel TV, ironing facilities, and a writing desk.
There was very small bed in my room.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location is very convenient, with a bus stop nearby that takes you to the city center in just 5 minutes. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained. We loved the layout of the hotel, with our own room that had a front door and a parking space right outside. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast was a highlight, with a freshly cooked and delicious selection of food. it was a great experience.
Hard to think of anything negative.
