The staff was super helpful with tips of things to do in the city and also by allowing me to store my bag after checking out. The breakfast was very good, and the location is convenient, close to the train station and within walking distance to the city center.

Value for money and comfortable

It's a nice enough hotel, close to the centre and either train station. There were several nice touches in the room, including a cafetiere. Nice big breakfast, served with a smile.

Comfortable stay. Clean rooms. Cooked breakfast was tasty. Toilet seat was a bit dodgy - could do with fixing. Also would recommend upgrading the quality of the bed linen. Otherwise, quiet and comfortable.

The place is sold as a hotel but it is very very very small. The spaces are small the rooms are small. The bathroom is a cubby hole. The is being sold as a hotel but it is NOT and should not be marketed as such

It was good value for money. The room was a little “cell” like and the small wall mounted tv was partly obscured by the tall boy cupboard. But it was very clean, the staff were attentive and efficient.
