Sonya

Conveniently located. Room basic but comfy. Main criticism is that the bathroom was much too hot. I nearly burnt my hand when I accidentally touched the heated towel rail while reaching for the toilet paper. I would have preferred not to have had to climb three flights of stairs to the room. Especially as there is no handrail on upper level.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was modern, impeccably maintained, and spotlessly clean, which exceeded my expectations. A delightful surprise was the espresso machine in the room—such a thoughtful touch! I enjoyed my short stay and would happily return in the future.

One Night Stay.
Perfectly adequate for a one night stay. But, unless one knows the area, getting to it via Sat Nav is challenging, and the local parking is a nightmare!:.

Very nice clean room, mine was a single and perfectly enough room for me. The pub and food were good, 10 min walk into the City is great. Would have been nice if the coffee/milk had been serviced for the 2nd night. Would I stay there again? …. definitely yes, if the price is right.
