I think it's a really great place to stay for the price. The owners seem really hard working and were friendly and had good customer service. It wasn't perfectly clean and wasn't a five star hotel but it's not fair to expect that for the price. The atmosphere in the pub with the rugby game on was cool and it was a nice place for dinner both nights of our stay. Definitely would stay here again. Loved it. Excellent value.

The room was clean, spacious and the bed was comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful and had a lot of local information. It was great to have a kitchen, which had everything you need, to make your own food. Very easy transport links (bus stop right outside the hotel) and a good location; out of the city but close enough to walk in or catch a short bus ride. Very cheap accommodation, very good value for money - I would highly recommend this hotel.

After a series of missed calls and ignored messages in the app, I was able to organise a late check in. Despite this on the day of my arrival, this property was very ready to leave me out on the street in the middle of the night. It took another two missed calls and a yelling match over the phone to finally get into my room.

Bar below is fine for a drink, darts, and dirty looks. The room is uninhabitable, unless you like dirt, grime, and foreign chemical and biological substances on your surfaces. The place is old to begin with, but not kept up and dangerous. If you have children definitely look elsewhere.
