Good

Liked: Great location. Liked that it’s an old building with traditional features. Nice surprise that breakfast was included as that wasn’t on Booking.com.
Disliked: Room could do with some attention to smarten it up. Felt a bit worn.

Pleasant stay,

Liked: Good parking, good location. Nice areas for a drink etc. Room was really clean.
Disliked: Felt the room - particularly the bathroom, needed updating, although very clean, just felt tired, especially for the price. Stained / worn carpet, single glazed windows, very old bathroom suite. Small room for the price.
