A lovely centrally located property conveniently located next door to the train station. Suffered from a broken elevator for the duration of our stay, which was tremendously inconvenient.

Liked: Cleanliness
Hotel is ok for an overnight stay and due to its proximity to the train and bus stations is well placed. However the furniture in our room was in poor condition and the cooked breakfast was not good value. In general it all felt a bit sad. Possibly stay at Premier Inn or similar next time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! It is an older hotel- so as expected some things were quite well-worn. Note- VERY limited onsite parking. We parked in the secure lot they directed us to that was a 5-10 minute walk away.

Convenient location next to the train station. Room was tidy. Double bed is awfully small for two people, but we made do. Really our only complaint is that the room was hot and hard to get comfortable.
