Fantastic. Issue to a recent injury I had to use a walker and the staff were fantastic at finding me a room on the first floor because the lifts were not in use. The staff were great at h carrying the walker up and down the stairs when I needed to go out and were just lovely. The room was great and quiet and had high ceilings and a really comfortable bed and pillows. I will stay here again.

Great, affordable hotel close to shops and public transport. Family of 4 and they had single beds for the kids and king for us. Super comfy beds. Small room with little storage but suited our needs. Bathroom was fresh and clean.
