The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Evening Meal

I had the pleasure of enjoying a delectable burger and chips during my stay. The flavors were spot on, and it was certainly a satisfying meal. However, I found the beer selection lacking. Despite this, the quality of the food compensated for the drink disappointment.

Unique Room Decor

Our room was exceptionally charming with its quirky decor that made it feel like a home away from home. The huge copper bathtub was a delightful surprise, and the cleanliness was impeccable. It certainly enhanced our overall experience.
