Pros (+) Reception staff very friendly. Good location. Breakfast was OK. As someone who has travelles frequently I know how things work. Anyone new coming here would have no idea what to do at breakfast time as no-one working there spoke to anyone!
Cons (-) Double room was awful. The smallest room I've ever stayed in. I take the view that we were only sleeping there but the mattress was shot and the bathroom was the smallest I've seen - again only a place to shower, but a hotel stay should be comfortable. Room was right next door to where the fresh bedding and cleaning kit was, so could hear every door open and every trolley being pushed. Double glaz...

Pros (+) Location and cleanliness are the only positives I can really say about this hotel.
Cons (-) No air conditioning in rooms, staff were very friendly but unhelpful at the same time and the beds are quite uncomfortable to sleep in. It's would be a last resort if I'd stay here again.

Anonymous, Dec 2016
Pros (+) Staff very polite and helpful, location convenient and easily accessible. The decor downstairs and the garden area in the back were tastefully done
Cons (-) Although reception area was very clean, fresh and modern in appearance, the rooms are quite old and perhaps need refurbished. The toilet (with no sink for hand washing) was separate to to the bathroom in the rooms which is a bit odd but probably due to lack of space in the layout of the room. But can't really fault the hotel as really good value!
