“Convenient and excellently located.”
We were on the ground floor so a bit noisy. The room was clean and lovely but a bit cramped. Water in the shower took a very long time to warm up. The breakfast was a generous and diverse spread. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

“Perfect overnight stay for when on the road, but could've easily spent more time there!”
Location is amazing! Right in the heart of town, really lovely shared space! The rooms were perfect for our family of 6. Padel courts were a hit too!

The beds are to short - it is very uncomfortable sleeping with your feet hanging off the bed. We were placed in a room between a group of teenagers on tour - we were not informed. The water was cold the morning when we had to finish to continue our trip. I did report it at reception. Although we booked for 3 people, we only had towels for 2 - thinking if you know we are 3 people in the room, why not have towels for 3 ... We were not impressed with the hotel at all.

“Central, clean facilities & friendly staff. Will be back”
Everything. The staff were so helpful. We had to book it very last minute after needing to cancel our booking at a hotel down the road and ANEW were very accommodating on such short notice.
