Traveller reviews

“Pleasant”
24 Apr 2025
Location was great, very convenient to what we needed. The view from the window was pretty, yes it was just buildings but the pretty multicoloured building on the corner was aesthetically pleasing whilst enjoying my morning coffee from my room. Reception staff friendly and check in and out was pleasant and easy. Vending machine in the lobby was handy for my midnight snack habit. If you're only needing a quick 1 or 2 night stop over on your travels, this place will do the job nicely.
