Great value! Hotel needs updating, but then they might not be able to offer such a great price. Staff was kind, the room was clean and the bed was really comfortable. And our room had a beautiful view of the river. We were happy with our stay!

I like this hotel. the only issues I have are that it appears to be a little unkept and the main floor rooms should be kept closed. The carpets should be re-stretched to they don't look so bad. The rooms are clean and our stays here were acceptable (4).

While it served as a place to sleep, the strange stains and unpleasant smells throughout, including in my room, the terrible attitude of the staff, and the subpar breakfast make it difficult to recommend this place to anyone.

In need of refurbishment, but certainly okay to stay there.
Large, clean room, with balcony opening to a beautiful river view.
Great value for money.

The location is great, very central. The hotel is quite shabby though. It really needs a facelift. It wasn't dirty, just excessively worn out (chipped tiles, worn out furniture, buckling carpet in the lobby, big scuff and wear marks throughout the building). The beds were comfy and our balcony overlooked the water which was nice. Staff was pleasant.
