Pleasant

Pleasant suburban location with restaurants and banks etc close by. The rooms are clean and modern but have no air conditioning and consequently very hot (in summer). Drinking water, tea, coffee etc is provided free in a shared communal facility on each floor. The church (very nearby) chimes every half hour even during the night which for some disturbs sleep.

Good hotel

Everything was great, room a bit on the small side. The only downside was that I didn't have towels in my room and I realised when it was too late.
