Lovely clean hotel, our room was amazing, great price with breakfast too. Only issue was that it was kinda hard to find the hotel as it's tucked in the corner of the street, that and the cheap toilet roll. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Very clean, comfortable hotel. The staff were really helpful and friendly. The room was very nice with a very comfortable bed. The only downside was that at breakfast on both days of my stay, I was given a mug with a large chip in the rim. I overheard other guests mentioning this as well.

Don’t judge a book by its cover

Beautiful hotel once inside, but the outside area was disappointing. The area looks like its in the middle of a rejuvenation so hopefully that will add to the hotels appearance.the rooms were comfortable we had a suite, which was comfortable and clean. During the night we were woken up by cars revving their engines up the street.

This is a lovely hotel and the staff were all amazing from check in to check out. The restaurant is a curry house basically but the quality is excellent. I stayed on a Saturday night and was facing onto the Main Street. The locals kept me entertained with their night out but as I had an early start it was not ideal. The room was clean, facilities were good and everything worked. A good choice.
