The family queen room we stayed in was modern with self catering facilities. The staff were affable and helpful in case of questions. The location was central, just next door to the very prominent town hall-very easy to find-, the metro, the park, the beach and the shops and a quiet residential area.

No complaints whatsoever, I thoroughly enjoyed this hotel and can just recommend. I had great 1-night stay here! The location seemed particularly good close to bus stop. Further, it was short walk to a gorgeous beach, public transport, and Athol House for 5 weeks. All food at the English breakfast was fab.

It was worth its 3 stars. Comfy bed and really loved great breakfast. Very clean unit. Just a 5-minute stroll to the centre...
The street was noisy and you'll have to deal with it.
