    Helpful staff and detailed check in information. Very clean, spacious and comfortable. Central location. Late check-in/self check in was helpful.

    Location was superb, communication with the Riverhouse was good although mainly by WhatsApp. Rooms were quite small and overlooked by surrounding houses, the window had no nets so we had the blind drawn most of the time for privacy. Shower...
