Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers lovely rooms with a huge comfortable bed and nice finishes, creating a peaceful environment. The location is very convenient for various activities, although noise from nearby student dormitories may be an issue. The dining experience could be improved, especially in terms of speed and variety. Overall, a pleasant stay with good value for money.
The hotel is conveniently located near the university and offers faultless cleanliness and tidy accommodations.
The hotel's location was excellent for my course at the University, very close and convenient. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with good but limited options given the circumstances. The rooms were not what I had expected for a two-night stay, but overall, I had a pleasant experience.
