“Its location is undeniably a strong suit, placing one within easy reach of both the train station and the city centre, which I found to be incredibly convenient. The breakfast, while busy at times, presented a well-rounded, delicious spread that offered genuine value for money. I particularly appreciated the helpfulness of the team, especially when a forgotten item needed returning.”
