One night stay, fabulous!
Very friendly and helpful staff! Rooms are over a late night bar so they quite noisy, which is clearly pointed out, but if you don’t mind that it’s perfect!

As mentioned in the hotel details, there is live music until about 3.30. We didn’t sleep much and didn’t stay for breakfast. The room itself was nice, as was the bedding. I didn’t like downstairs.

This accommodation is in a great location, the staff were friendly and welcoming, the room was well equipped. Our only criticism was the noise, as be aware the area below is used for live bands and DJs and the music didn't stop until 3.00am - noting ear plugs were provided 😂

Very good location and convenient parking. Very helpful staff. Good breakfast and comfortable room. A pity that there is no lift to go to the rooms. A rail both sides of the staircase would help elderly customers like us manage the steep stairs better.

The staff was very helpful in getting my suitcase up and down the long, steep flight of stairs. I was there early in the week when no music shows were on so noise was no issue. The breakfast was very good. The old fashioned, high-walled bathtub required some practice.

So central and great service. Ear plugs provided just in case of music from downstairs but it was a quiet night!
Only drawback was the reception on the TV which kept breaking up. Otherwise, a very enjoyable and comfortable stay.

Arrived to find that the venue had a nightclub that was open until 3am with very loud music directly below my room.
The staff were non apologetic about this.
I would not have booked if this was advised prior to the booking being taken
A pair of inadequate ear plugs were in the room as a token to the problem.
