Worth weighing

4 to weigh

“The location was ideal, close to the city centre and all the sights. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The common areas were comfortable and nicely designed, especially the chill room near reception. My room was spotless, and the little details made it feel homely. The view from the fourth-floor toilet was incredible.”

“Great value for the price. The staff were extremely helpful. Cleaning was constant, and the modern bathroom area was very tidy, though bathmats would help since the tile gets slippery when wet. The historic building's tile wainscotting and wooden floors were lovely, and the showers had plenty of hot water.”
