Very clean but dated premises. The room was specious & bed comfortable. Staff were very friendly & noise from the bar area below not a problem. Breakfast was a little disappointing but good pre-selection the night before. Parking outside was convenient but council run public car park free between 6pm & 9am. All in all a decent stay for the convenience & friendliness.

Great location and staff member at check in and during the afternoon in the bar was very helpful & knowledgeable. We found the room and facilities to be excellent, other than the bed which was a little uncomfortable. Disappointed to return at only 1045pm to be told last orders had been called at the bar and we couldn't have a final drink. Other than that would recommend and would stay again.

Spacious room, nice view over market square. Shower room needs refurbishment. Very disappointed that there was no free wifi in the public areas nor in the room.

Pretty average

The accommodation was much as expected. The room clean and tidy but the windows were not double glazed and so outside noise easily heard. In the bathroom little things like the toilet roll placed too far back and no plug in the hand basin were minor inconveniences.
