Great location. Food was great. The only complaint would be no ac in hotel and it’s very loud being above the bars/restaurants. Bring your own shower cap, bar soap, shampoo/condition. Would stay again just in a back room not street side.

Conveniently located. Close to restaurants, pubs and shopping. Average room. After parking in the incredibly small Spanish arch car park, we opted to park several blocks away in a larger car park.

Amazing location with parking

Hotel was a bit hard to find but once inside it had a fun, funky vibe. The room was clean but incredibly small and the toilet was not working properly. Parking is right next store and there is shopping and restaurants as soon as you walk out the door.

Paul

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Hotel was fine, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The noise was far worse than we could have imagined. We were kept up until 2 am when the music stopped. Discount on parking was not as described. We were charged full fee and when we asked the parking employee we were blown off that we had already paid so nothing they could do. Our bad for not doing more due diligence on the hotel. Great location if you aren’t concerned about sleeping.

Lovely hotel

Lovely hotel in a fantastic location. Parking is literally next door - great value given the location. Staff are super friendly. And they left a nice note and a box of chocolates when I asked for something special for my gf. Lovely touch and really appreciated. The room itself is lovely, new and clean. Great bathroom and shower/bath. Zero complaints.

Avoid room 104 or 102.. it is directly of above bar where music is till 2:00am. When asked what time the music ended on Friday night we were told 11;00pm ish.. and didn’t we read the reviews we did but no one said music would be so loud and annoying.. While website said be for some noise it never said bar was right below us.. Staff very friendly and know they had no control.. they need to say where this hotel sits!! No one would rent here if they knew!!!
