Clean modern facilities. Good continental breakfast range and dinner menu except it was the same dinner menu/specials every night - ? have some different items on special. Some confusion for my fellow traveller when ordering cup ot tea - teapot brought mixed with milk. Room power points limited for 3 people charging phones/watches/hearing aids. Wireless charging mentioned on lamp but couldnt get to work. Maybe some instruction.

Located in quiet part of town. Salemanca markets, shops, good restaurants, churches, warf for boat cruises, are all within 10 to 15min walk from the hotel. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Parking is under cover, safe and easy to access. Access to the roads around the hotel is easy and uncomplicated. Breakfast was good value.

Disliked: Amenities
I rated 3 as I am not impressed becuse of the following: - lobby could be better lighted. - our bed is a bit squeeky and unstable because it rolls. - No bath robe, no slipper - No free drinking water unlike other 3-4 hotels, they offered drinking water - Can't cast my phone into the telly. - Door could be more secured by putting an automatic hinge above. I have to drag the door to close always
