"Very nice hotel & staff. Superb breakfast. The LARGEST bed pillow you will ever see. The only downside is that it can be a bit noisy outside being in the city centre; late at night and early morning. No A/C meant having the window open which allowed for all the street noise. But would still recommend. ..."
