Situated at the top of the city it’s convenient for most things.
We arrived and were instantly charged for what we thought was free parking. On entering the room it was clear it hadn’t been updated in many years with crinkled carpets, scruffy chairs and tired fixtures. The cobwebs were a feature that I wasn’t sure I’d seen before in other hotels.
Several attempts at the plumbing had also been made in the bathroom, making a shower experience like no other.
Food for full breakfast looked good, although I didn’t eat the full buffet annoyingly as I only wanted a light breakfast, the toast and honey was white standard bread and crystallised runny honey.
Late check out would have been charged at a fairly punchy rate so we didn’t indulge.
A neighbouring room played the tv all night on super loud so didn’t really sleep much at all either.
All in all, and expensive poor nights sleep in a pretty sub standard room for the money.

The hotel is located very near the train station and has an abundance of shops nearby to eat etc. The reception staff were amazing. Very helpful, kind and accommodating as were the restaurant staff. Good value overall for a short stay.

Picked this place because it was close to the station. Excellent place to stay- staff goes above and beyond. Clean and quiet rooms- excellent breakfast (well worth the 10 pounds extra).
Highly recommend

Cheap and cheerful hotel in the right place of town. Good bar and food. Friendly staff, with no frills amenities.
Breakfast is OK, but at £10...is still worth the price.
