Nice but not perfect
Date: 2009-12-18
First impressions is that it has a European feel to it. Not one of the best hotels I've stayed in but it wasn't bad given the price. Its classed as a 4.5 star hotel, but I would rate it as more of a...
Absolutely wonderful and relaxed atmosphere with perfect location
