    Solid hotel, however missing a touch to be really good
    The hotel would probably rate a 3.5 if possible. Positive: Very friendly staff at reception, convenient and fair priced parking, room modern and clean. Why not rated a 4? A 4 would reflect a "very good" rating and it would take the hotel management to add a little touch of…

    "It is a small hotel, book early."
    "I'd ask for the jr suite."
    "Get a room not opposite to fast food piza shop as youngsters gather around."
    "At the moment (Spring 2012) be careful about the ongoing works. There might be a very disagreeable smell of fresh paint in your room - not sure they have smell-free room."
