Comfortable Stay Near the University

indoor poolexcellent foodspacious roomrepetitive breakfast

I found the indoor pool a good size. Excellent food was served. The room was spacious with two chairs, an armchair, desk, and console table. The bathroom seemed newly refurbished.

The breakfast, although good, was same each day. I stayed for six nights with my family, so it became repetitive. More variety should have been included for longer stays.

Each morning, breakfast had many options but lacked daily variation. Hot items were available and staff ensured the buffet was stocked. The quality tasted good.

An Acceptable Stay, With Some Issues

suited locationdisjointed serviceincorrect billing

The hotel location suited my needs well enough.

The restaurant service proved disjointed. Staff seemed unclear about procedures. Extra drinks was on my bill at checkout, this created an unnecessary issue. I found this quite irritating, given that I had prepaid for certain items.
