I had a bit of a chuckle at the quirky room design which seemed like an afterthought above the bar, but it desperately needed a good dusting and vacuuming. On the bright side, the park nearby was a pleasant stroll to the town center.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were very clean but decorated in a garish style, the service was excellent. The location by the river offered beautiful views and convenient access to town, but the dining options were limited. Overall, good value for the price.

Rooms

My room was impeccably clean but the decor with crushed velvet silver and black curtains and sparkly silver and glass mirrors and tables was a bit over the top. It felt cozy but only spacious enough for one person.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very clean with a new decor, but being positioned above the bar area made it quite noisy during the nights we stayed. The rooms were compact with en suite facilities, adequate, and impeccably clean.
