Breakfast was included in the price of the stay.

The room had a big glass window overlooking a busy street with a high concentration of people, so it was sometimes a bit noisy and lacked privacy.

Mackie Mayor foodhall just across the road. Lots of restaurants and very close to city center. Staff try their best to make it pleasant.

Bad smell across the property. Water in showers and drinking smell of excess chlorine. Bad breakfast especially the breads which were cold

Buona pulizia e buona colazione

Una struttura così che non abbia il parcheggio incluso è assurdo.
