Difficult to review. The photographs don't do it justice. It looks quite acceptable in the pictures but in reality it is very tired and tatty. In our room one bedside table was a piece of wood balanced on several bricks. A cupboard contained some old tiles and a broken door lock. One bedside lamp couldn't be plugged in because the socket was on the other side of the bed which was hard against the wall. Surfaces were quite worn. It was clean although a pile of used towels lying on the shared bathroom floor wasn't pleasant. Overall it needs stripping out with new furniture, a new carpet, and a coat of paint.

Im not a fan of shared bathrooms and keys that are tricky to maneuver but i take into account the age of the building and the character of the town.

Shower is inside the room. Toilet shared on the floor. Not value for money as I felt overcharged for the quality of the hotel. Breakfast is basic, non-attended
