Small single room, nicely decorated and simply furnished. Fabulous view of the cathedral. The place is clean and quiet, I loved it and when I can afford it I will definitely stay again. The reception staff were lovely and very helpful. The breakfast was also really nice and the dining room is very calm and comfortable. One little niggle, the shower was very small and not very powerful.
The best place we have ever stayed, so clean, perfect location, staff and facilities top notch, we will definitely be returning and booking for family and friends too, don’t delay, you must go!
My Husband and I stayed here for our sons graduation.
Great location for the cathedral and the city, rooms very clean and staff very friendly, breakfast was lovely.
Would 100% recommend and would return for a city break.
