Went in a business trip. Nice, clean and ample room. Polite staff. Nice breakfast, loved the pancakes! Ample parking and quiet location. There was a pool but didn't get the chance of using it. A good choice if you are looking for a reliable chain hotel.

Stayed here for a week end break, 2 nights BB and dinner on our first night was included. Welcomed by a very friendly gentleman who had actually noticed that I had requested a table for 8pm in the restaurant. I always put this down but it's very rare that anyone notices. Situated in a quiet location with ample free parking,... More

I had a very ordinary hotel experience. Being told that I couldn't use the pool and gym at 8.35pm was pretty poor customer service. Otherwise this hotel could have been any hotel anywhere on earth with nothing remarkable about it at all.
