Good hotel and comfortable stay

It’s a good comfortable hotel with clean rooms and beds. Though for 4 people in room with 2 beds there is no space to walk in the room. The second bed goes wall to wall so you cannot walk to bathroom. The hotel offers a good breakfast spread so it is welcome. The hotel is centrally located so it makes it convenient
