Lovely welcoming place to stay...
Liked: Very central location with easy convenient parking right behind it. Staff very welcoming and even gave us a jug of water with ice and two glasses, to take back to our room in the evening. Lovely large airy room.
Disliked: TV was very slow.

This hotel Thursday to Sunday...
Liked: There was parking and the breakfast was reasonable
Disliked: The live music keeping us awake till 3 pm. It states on their own website that they have a late licence on Thursday,Friday and Saturday, but not on booking .com. It was horrendous. The bed was uncomfortable and broken and the rooms and corridors smelt.

Pleasant
Liked: Location was brilliant. There was parking available along with wifi. Room was a good size. Bath with shower over.
Disliked: They could do with having summer duvets, as room was baking hot, but couldn’t open the window, as road was fairly noisy. I didn’t read the listing properly, so didn’t realise there would be a DJ playing music until 3am. Didn’t actually hear the music, but at kicking out time - the noise from drunk students outside woke me.

A great central location from...
Liked: Staff were excellent, both at check-in and breakfast/check-out
Disliked: Room a bit noisy with the live band in the bar - we were worried when we saw the earplugs on the nightstand - but not too bad once you got used to it. Not every evening, so check website if this may concern you.

Quirky comfy base from which...
Liked: Great location once you get over the stress of trying to access the car park as the SatNav sends you down a pedestrian only street! Lovely helpful staff delicious breakfast comfy room. Nice spacious bathroom with heated towel rail.
Disliked: They did warn that it’s a music venue. There was very loud music one night til 3.30 am. So if this bothers you it’s not the place for you.

Great room, splendid location if...
Liked: Superb location between station and Cathedral. Rooms above a pub, but earplugs thoughtfully provided. Very pleasant and well-equipped room. Nice bath. Reception manned, and breakfast served, by a thoroughly efficient and friendly staff member.
Disliked: Can't blame the hotel for a heatwave that struck southern England on the day I arrived, though if I'd foreseen it I should have chosen a hotel with air conditioning. The room heated up in the afternoon and remained unpleasantly warm on my first night - though that wasn't the management's fault. Net curtains would have been good, though, since the thick curtains blocked out any cooler air there might have been, but drawing no curtains at all would have made it difficult to wear as little as the heat made one want to wear!
