Clean and comfortable budget hotel, a short walk up the hill to city centre. Easy to park, though you have to pay some other company on an app. Friendly reception. Good stay.

Pleasant hotel, good location with friendly staff

The hotel is well located, just a short walk from the town centre. Parking was very easy. Room was very pleasant, modern with good amenities. Check in was a little slow, but I think we just were unlucky with our arrival time. Breakfast was good, a variety of choices. Very friendly and helpful staff
