Friendly and helpful staff. Free breakfast is great and convenient. Decent location near the street with all the restaurants and grocery stores. Could have better cooking facilities but not too hard to make do.

Great place, lots of space and a very chilled out area. Right in the centre of town, only caveat is that it’s a little too quiet but that is nice if you’re looking for downtime and a little peace and quiet
