10/10 Excellent
"I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It was a full sized hotel, as opposed to the guesthouse type of accommodations I had last year when I visited Chester. The walk from the train station was fairly short, although if you're carrying a heavy suitcase, you'd probably be better off getting a ride. There is a supermarket next door that had many options for snacks and beverages, but the restaurant situation was a bit challenging, as most of them were about 1km walk west of the hotel. The room itself was big, clean, and even had AC, which is hard to find in the cheaper hotels. And that was the best part - the price was decent for this place, as Chester is quite pricey."
