I came here for 4 nights and had a really amazing stay. The hotel was wonderful and tidy, overlooked the car park. My room was beautifully designed, had smoke detectors for safety measures. The overall atmosphere was quiet, nevertheless some staff members were very unfriendly. It was in a fab location with consistently courteous and immensely pleasant staff. Also, the property was 10 minutes drive from Mary's Shell. A Michelin star rated restaurant was nice for dinner.

The hotel facilities were top-notch, and the onsite parking was a major convenience. Additionally, the location was perfect, with easy access to transportation and a stunning riverside view from our room. We couldn't have asked for more!
