We truly enjoyed this absolutely great hotel and stayed here for 1 night. The staff was pleasant, everything was really good. We had a lovely big bedroom. Our accommodation was set in a central location near to restaurant at 10.05, the pub and the sports bar. Plus, the property was near Mathew Street. The bar was good and food they serve is fine.
