Everything was great. We were immediately greeted by friendly faces in the reception. The woman upgraded our room for free since we asked for two separate beds, even though we have ordered a queen bed. They gave us a comfy room and shortly a woman came to make a second bed in a sofa for me. She was happy and service minded, also quick in her efforts to make a nice bed for me. On the room where a full kitchen too and a spacious sofa and TV. We felt very welcome here and would recommend this hotel to people who like high quality and yet pay a decent price.

    What a gorgeous find this hotel was! A lovely little boutique hotel tucked away with a beautiful courtyard (sadly I brought the rain with me from Manchester so I couldn’t enjoy it). Breakfast was divine and the staff in the restaurant were lovely - remembering my coffee order from the day before so I didn’t even need to ask, was a nice touch and much appreciated. Highly recommended and i would definitely stay here again
