Amazing hotel we cant falt the staff they were all so very helpfully and friendly. Great location and it made our stay so much better thet everything we wanted to do was a short walk away. Will definitely be going back there again. The only thing that letvit down very slightly was the noise fro a nightclub that was nearby. But everything else was amazing
