Good location facility needs work and well under
Definitely has potential but facility needs work and more staff to cover basic needs. Didn’t get much sleep because of guests walking above creating noise. Toilet didn’t flush properly . Bathroom taps and shower taps were leaking and nearly came off in my hand. Television came on at 1:15am by itself and continued to do this every 15 minutes until turned off at the outlet.

Neat and tidy room with the added bonus of breakfast which was included in the price. Easy walk to plenty of food options for dinner. Bathroom very dated though, with some mould showing, broken tile(s) and shower screen panels that needed fixing.

Pleasant stay thanks so much. The bed was so comfortable, it’s been over 40 years since I stayed here & the decor shows this period of time, the bathroom area also could do with a refurbish. All in all perfect position being so central & staff are lovely & very helpful.
