Good stay near my daughter

big room blackout curtains comfy bed
The room was really big and clean. The blackout curtains worked great, so the room was dark. The bed was comfy, and the staff were nice. I liked that parking was close to the reception area.
The place looks tired from the outside, it needs some love.

Fantastic stay!

friendly staff large room blackout curtains
Check-in was quick and the receptionist offered a friendly welcome! The staff at the on-site pub were friendly, particularly the fellow who also handled my checkout. I appreciated the large size of my room. It contained everything I needed for my stay. The curtains functioned as effective blackout blinds, promoting restful sleep.
I noticed the decor looked a bit old fashioned when parking the car. It gave a slightly tired first impression, though the interior was clean.
