Real Guest Reviews & Ratings

What Previous Guests Had to Say

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently appreciate the spacious rooms, some offering beautiful castle or canal views, and the convenience of having a kitchenette equipped with a kettle, toaster, cooker, and oven. The breakfast buffet is generally well-received with lots of choices, and the 24/7 availability of coffee and tea is a definite plus. The location is ideal, within walking distance of the city center and with a bus stop right outside for easy access to attractions like the Museum and Greyfriars; some guests have noted that the soundproofing could be improved. Communal facilities, including a games room with a billiard table and comfortable lounge areas, add to the appeal.
