This is a well-designed and decorated hotel. The room is large and the layout is very reasonable. The room is comfortable and clean. The breakfast is delicious. There are many kinds of food and fresh. The front desk service, room service and restaurant service are all very good. The location of the hotel is very good. It is only a five-minute walk to the castle, museum and gallery. St. Gill's Church and the downtown square are nearby, and it is only a 15-minute walk from the railway station. Perfect experience! Highly recommended!
