Heard a fan on all night - staff tried to help - might have been in another room - too late to wake the occupants. Offered ear plugs. Staff were amazing! Loved the free tea and coffee as well as breakfast to go!

The noise is all night long, location is great but not worth it because of noise. Breakfast is the worst European breakfast I have ever had. Huge disappointment. One good thing is the location. Would NOT stay here again.

Amazing location. Very clean and nice staff. The room was very small and with low ceilings making it hard to stand up in places and made the room smaller. Im sure other rooms are better so try and request a room not on the too floor.
