Reception and bedrooms were well kept and stylish and the location good for exploring the city. Breakfast was a bit limited and the coffee really not as good as you’d expect. The outside areas had been well designed and planted but are now in severe need of attention. There’s a lot of competition so these things are important. Overall, we felt comfortable and safe.
