Great location & price
This hotel is in a great location - close walking distance to the cathedral, main shopping area, riverside and old town squares & restaurants. Lovely staff and great breakfast. Whilst our room was reasonably basic, it was spotlessly clean and the beds were super comfortable.

Would stay again
Central location, comfortable and a free breakfast. Would have appreciated some vegan options for breakfast. Noise can be heard from the street but this quietened down overnight on the Monday. There was an issue with the new fire alarm system on the Tuesday morning but this was resolved after it happened a few times. Would recommend this affordable hotel if not looking for anything extremely special.
