Central to town and eating establishments...big room...comfie bed...lovely bath shower and kitchen facilities...off street parking..noisy area at night But good value for money...only downside was poor checkin..waiting for 40 min for someone to turn up to let guests in

6/10 Good

Room was a good size, however cleanliness was not quite up to expectations. Very dirty windows and thick dust at places. Couple lightbulbs blown in the bathroom, bathroom handle not locking and bathroom heater not heating. We had one tiny piece of soap to share between three people over two nights. The whole place is fraying arround edges and could do with a bit of paint and repairs to bring it back to its former glory.
