The parking was very tight but free for guests. I was a bit worried when I saw the bar downstairs but the rooms were lovely and quiet. The location was handy to the airport and an easy walk to the castle and shops. The beds were very comfortable and the shower was clean and hot. We bought breakfast which was a very good deal. I would stay here again.

They have a great bar with excellent quality and prices. We found the outside area of the hotel (there are tables to eat) with a lot of trash on the floor. The room was a little uncomfortable. The staff were great. Maybe the place is not for foreigners.

Location is very convenient to shops and restaurants. The rooms are above a pub, but I did not have any issues with noise from the pub. I did hear noise from a nearby room, and I don’t think the occupants were being particularly loud. Parking was difficult - the lot is extremely small, and I ended up parking on the street in a pay to park area. Parking on the street is free after 6 pm and before 8 am, which happened to work with my arrival and departure times. Probably your best bet is the parking on Foster Street a few blocks away. My main complaint with the room was that it did not have a window, though there was a skylight with an electronic shade. Overall it was a comfortable stay at a decent price for the location, but a small room with no window may feel claustrophobic for some guests.
