"The hotel is located in the city centre, which was extremely busy and a bit overwhelming at the time I arrived. Once I stepped into the premises however, the peace and tranquility was divine. Very clean room and very polite staff. I would definitely love to stay there again."

"The hotel was perfectly situated between Albert Dock and the city centre,it was spotlessly clean, the breakfast was good too, the only criticism I would have is there could be a set of drawers in the room to put your underwear and t shirts in as there were only 6 hangers in total, which wasn't enough for 4 days."
