An old hotel without modern refinements
This is an old hotel furnished in an old style, which means it doesn’t have the mod cons and refinements of a modern hotel. However it was pleasant.

We stayed here 2 nights and had a nice stay, the only thing that let it down was the shower - it was very poor. Had a nice large room and the bed was comfy. Great location and we managed ok for free parking fortunately
