Room met our need for an overnight stay. Roomy. Nice big TV.
Cheap worked out at £22 per person so we were not expecting anymore than basic. Room clean but in need of refurbishment.
The main building currently being refurbished so we stayed in an outside room.
Adequate for our one night stay. Receptionist friendly and apologetic for the chaos
Had a kettle & microwave which was helpful
Secure parking. Room very stuffy (very humid weather), even with the dated aircon on. Ceiling fan was better. A lovely old hotel building, but needs a lot of work to restore
The room was clean and comfortable. Trains were noisy. Good budget accommodation

We had the standard room with ensuite. Room was clean n spacious however the shower really needs updating- there was a fallen tile n other tiles were in the danger of falling off the wall and the shower was really too narrow. I even bumped my head on the wall - just too small. Room is value for money except shower recess. Staff was helpful when we advised that the sheets were unclean. She gave us a freshly laundered set.
