All I needed was a roof over my head with a comfy bed in a quiet location close to everything and this place does it at a reasonable price.

Staff were amazing. Let us in a couple of hours earlier than expected.
Very close walk to the train station.
It was perfect for a 1 night stop over.
The rooms are basic but the budget price reflects this. Older building. Nice pub and coffee shop

Loved the atmosphere and bands, its nice and quiet in the accommodation area though if you want to get your head down.
Disliked the lack of menu choices, however there are numerous eating spots within easy walking distance from the hotel..

Overall is reasonable, cheap accommodation solution.
The building is very old and smells like it too - even with the window open all afternoon and ceiling fan on it was impossible to escape the mustiness. The floors are super creaky and the ‘sound proofing’ isn’t really sound-proof - being on top of a pub and next to train crossing - but does the job enough. I didn’t realise the bathroom (& kitchenette) were shared spaces and that it’s literally on top of a pub that has live music - so that was a reminder to read the fine print. The facilities were very clean (other than the car park which could do with a mow and a tidy up) and for accommodation on a budget it did the job. Large comfy bed, large screen tv, wifi, etc. Shower pressure not great nor did the hot water last long so be ready for a speedy one!

It felt like a Backpackers to me.
I felt a little bit too old to be there.
I didn't like the trains.
