Everything from start to finish was superb. Definitely recommend
It was a nice and very easy trip. The hotel was lovely. The staff were great. The bar was great. They recommended a nice café around the corner of breakfast. Great time all round.
Our room was fabulous with a four poster bed - very comfy - and a massive picture window overlooking the market square. A quirky, unique stop over I would recommend.
Great position, local easy parking!
Nice rooms, well equiped, nice barhroom, comfortably beds.
Lovely Bar downstairs, and good staff..
Would stay again!!

Overall acceptable
We were looking for a basic nights stay and that is what we got. No food at the location (an oversight on my part when booking), but the beds were comfy. Walls a trifle thin, staff very friendly. Plenty of parking.

Pleasant stay
Lovely room at the top of the building very clean on the inside, so don’t be fooled by the state of the outside. It was dead quiet, no food available but options in close vicinity. Lovely welcome. Shower a bit tricky to work out but once you do plenty of hot water.
