There isn't much to say here that has not already been said, except for this one little critical point which was a huge bonus to us. It's not just kid friendly, they are well stocked with games, toys, books and dvd's for kids of all ages. My so was so happy he was content to pass the time in the hotel's cafe area. In addition, 150 paces (I counted them) from the front door is a lovely park for young children. Another bonus for us.
I cannot thank the hotel enough for offering this to it's guests. It's rare indeed to find. For the price, the location and offerings were generous, including ammenities in the room which is also not very common. The staff was helpful and friendly and appeared to speak a multitude of languages. Some reviewers have complained of the rooms being dated, the beds uncomfortable and walls too thin. I can say the beds weren't the best, the rooms are dated and there is some street noise, but that wouldn't stop us from returning. As European travelers now, this is typical of the region and we just accept it. Perhaps the hotel will considering updating the beds soon. The walls and noise, well...that's different. Hotel spa was a great visit for us as well. We went early in the morning and had the place to ourselves. It's small but service was great. Will go again.
