Robert, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great stay but expensive.

We had an enjoyable mid week break. The hotel was a luxury for us but if i am honest the room definitely needs an update and care of the little things like missing rails on the curtains or the bathroom shelf needs securing to the wass more.
Joyce, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were lovely and really friendly and we also enjoyed the breakfast which was a nice start to the day
Will, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great service and spacious rooms! But this isn’t a hotel, it is a bed and breakfast with a pool. There is no where to get food or chill out and parking is very limited.

Vicky, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a nice stay here, and the guy on reception (sorry, we didn't get his name) was supper friendly and informative The room was clean, although some of the furniture was a bit dated. Breakfast was a decent selection, especially considering this wasn't a big place

Michael, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

A lovely hotel

Great stay, lovely staff, and a building full of character! Breakfast and the pool were truly awesome, too. The only downside was some furniture/equipment needing a bit of love (door knob broken on the bedside table, screw on the window loose, hook behind the door in the changing rooms of the pool broken etc), plus a bit of noise from the road but really nothing major at all, it was a lovely stay overall

Our stay was great. Very comfortable bed, clean bathroom, excellent breakfast. The hotel is close to the city centre and we could do everything on foot. The staff were very friendly and polite.
Ricardo, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly and comfortable

Staff very friendly and helpful especially Radu. Location excellent, short walk from town etc. our room didn’t have a hairdryer or bath robes as advertised, but I’m sure if we had asked we could have had this rectified. Most beds were very creaky!! Fantastic breakfast. Although we didn’t use the pool, we were told it was lovely from others. Comfortable room and free parking, we would stay again.
