    Loved the location and that there was free parking outside. Only less than €10 for a taxi into the bars and restaurants so very ideal location for a night out. Beds were extremely comfortable and room was very clean and tidy. Bathroom was spotless and I loved that there was a heated towel rack which I never had in a hotel room before! Not sure how this hotel is only 3 star also! Would definitely say it’s a 4 if not a 5! Will definitely be returning.
