    Passable
    Location great but overpriced for facilities
    Location was fantastic with just a 2minute walk into the centre.
    Upgraded to a superior king room but facilities didnt seem to be any different to what you normally would get in a standard room. No seating/mirror arrangements for anyone who wishes to sit putting on their makeup. No sockets next to bed.

    Great city break in a wonderful place
    Great room, great food and excellent service. All the staff are friendly and helpful; the dining experience was excellent. Valet parking worked like a charm. The property is located close to the city centre, so we didn't need the car during our stay.
