Great area! The property itself seemed quite old. Our toilet clogged itself every day we stayed. There was some sort of electrical box just outside our room that emitted a very high pitched whirling sound that was relentless. They said they fixed it, but the sound persisted and was even louder after. I can still hear the ringing in my ears. Got zero sleep even with ear plugs. Not restful

Clean hotel, centrally located, with very nice staff. However, we had to pay 30 pounds per night for our room upgrade. This was an unwelcome surprise.
