Reviews and Ratings
I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, offering a good shower and even a fold-out single bed for added convenience. The service was top-notch, from the welcoming check-in to the attentive room service. The location was superb, right in the center of town near shops and dining options. The dining experience was delightful with delicious homemade pastries. However, the facilities could use a bit of improvement. Overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
The hotel is conveniently located in Farah's restaurant area, ensuring easy access to the town center and other high-quality establishments. The rooms feature a fold-out single bed in addition to a double bed on check-in, providing comfortable sleeping arrangements. The dining experience includes inclusive tea and gluten-free options, while the facilities offer modern amenities for a pleasant stay.
The hotel is located in a very quiet area, close to the Balor theatre and within the center of the town near shops. The rooms are equipped with lovely facilities, including a fold-out single bed, and offer a comfortable stay. The service, especially on the reception desk, from check-in to check-out, is exceptional. However, the dining options are limited, with a focus on local products and tea, and the Wi-Fi service comes at an additional cost.
