A unique hotel.
I requested a room away from the noisy lift but the room was opposite the lift.
I have stayed here in the past and the standard of the breakfast is not what it once was. However I do like this hotel and would probably stay here again.

Great location, clean and tidy
Friendly front of house staff, rooms clean but the bedrooms need an upgrade and so do the communal areas. Bathrooms renovated and very clean. Breakfast was pretty good. Excellent location. VERY hot! central heating on full blast. Would return for a one night stay.
