Hotel staff were so friendly and welcoming. Marcelo helped us so much in finding a wonderful dentist when we had an emergency. A train strike occurred on our departure day and he arranged for a driver to take us to our destination. We would highly recommend this hotel!

It was close to loads of shops, however the room was in a bad condition and the bathroom tiny. Struggled to get through the shower doors and I am small. Room was next to the lift and the walls are very thin, so that is very loud everytime the doors open or the lift moves. Not good value for money.
