This was a perfect place for my daughter and I to stay. It’s very basic and perfectly adequate. Short walk to town, able to watch locals bustling about, very helpful staff (esp Sara), clean, small shower but amazing water pressure.

Needs more care and attention
Friendly welcome however my room could have done with a thorough clean. Ine of the curtains was ripped and tatty on one side and the bathroom needed a proper deep clean and descaling of the shower head. Hairs and bottle marks at the back of the bath. Toilet seat either needed bleaching or replacing as very yellow around the rim and underneath. Coffee stains on one of the lamps. Did speak to manager who said he would speak to housekeeping but won't be staying again. Disappointed

It was okay.....
Lets be honest, its a no frills overnight stopover. Its no good for a romantic getaway unless you are foreseeing a divorce. Great shower. Very small double bed. It was adequate for our needs but look elsewhere if you are seeking comfort.

Very basic. Definitely not worth the money. The room was in the basement and smelt damp. Needs updating. Convenient for train service and close to shopping area. Staff were friendly.

This property was adequate. It does not have an elevator or air conditioning. The room was clean, though very used and worn. The size of the sink was comically small. We were there on a hot summer evening and left the windows open and the traffic was loud. The staff did help me find parking and were kind when I was having difficulty with my phone. It's nothing fancy, but it did the job. Great location!

2/10 Poor

Don’t stay here
Honestly, the staff (whilst pleasant) or owners, must be providing false positive reviews, because this hotel is far off base from a 7. Whoever is leaving 10/10 reviews is being deliberately misleading. Cracked shower tiles, leaking sink, leaking shower, shower door that doesn’t close, pot lights falling from the ceiling, caulking with mould and falling out, bathroom door handle DUCT TAPED on… There are far, far better hotels that aren’t basic, dirty, damaged, and dated.

2/10 Poor

Our room was very small, but that’s ok however needs a lot of work and upgrading. Torn curtains, peeling paint off walls and ceiling , broken toilet seat, horrible dirty silicone in shower area with cracked tiles, temperature hard to manage in shower, broken extractor fan. No bedside table. So noisy as right next to the stairs and no sound insulation in-between rooms so couldn’t sleep due to heavy footsteps all night long. All laundry just piled outside our door. No replenishing of tea bags. Would not recommend this place even if it was free.
