Good size comfortable twin room great breakfast and central location
United KingdomI have read some negative reviews regarding draughty windows, tired decor etc. Yes, some rooms are in need of touch ups etc but PLEASE DO NOT be put off by these reviews. The decor does not affect the comfort of your stay or the safety of having 4 safe walls and a watertight roof over your head. The staff have been wonderful and accomodating every time I've stayed here. The rooms have always been clean, and comfortable that I've stayed in. Breakfast was plentiful, fresh and delicious (buffet style) and covers cereal, continental and cooked. I stay here regularly, and have no complaints of any nature.
