Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Was nice clean room and excellent location On arrival there was a small poo and wee in the toilet which was a nice touch! I also didn’t like there was no windows to open but rather an air con system as the room was perfectly adequate and well designed but for such a small space felt stuffy and full of recycled air.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The staff was excellent and helpful and the location was great. BUT . . . we tried to check-in at 13:45 and our room was ready but if we wanted the room "early" there would be a 25 euro "early check-in charge." Seemed a bit Ryanair/Spirit Airlines to me. I get it if the room isn't ready - fine, we'll walk around and come back when the room is ready. But if it's ready, why have it sit empty and piss of the customer before s/he is already in the room? Again, great staff.

Great location. Great place - nice decor. Room can be small but price is good. Just be aware some rooms face into the interior - they’re very quiet but no view.
