Basic but clean hotel, nice staff & an easy 15min walk into town. Good 3 star hotel for one night. Not comfortable enough for more I didn’t think. One hard pillow, small towels, unpredictable shower temperature, broken TV remote . Coffee & Tea in room, easy parking & quiet.

The property is an old building in desperate for modernising and freshening up. The carpets are extremely aged and dirty, the shower was basically trickling, not running of cold water and therefore ended up having to have a dry wash from the toilet sink

Kristina

Liked: Cleanliness
On arrival they tried to charge me the full amount when I had already paid half as a deposit. Not a great start. Room was very small and a little tired but clean. Bathroom very clean. Bed was comfy but pillows were thin and very firm. Not a great night’s sleep thanks to whining of an extractor fan somewhere in the hotel that went on all night and very thin curtains which meant an early wake up. Great location though.
