Warm period atmosphere hotel. Very clean, quiet and spaceous rooms. A few small steps to negotiate to room but no problem for us. Very good value. No meals or breakfast served but great location to walk to cafes and pubs. Also near town centre. Covered car park at hotel. Excellent discount for residents but be aware spaces limited and cannot be reserved. It is also available to non residents so can get busy. We would certainly return.

Mattress was slightly tilted, so it was as if the bed was on an incline. Heater was too strong and at night I don’t think that’s very healthy, woke up a bit dizzy. Location is nice. Also Wifi barely works on the second floor.

The mattress was probably as old as the building otherwise decent stay and worth the price.

Our room was chilly and as we were staying 6 nights we politely asked if we could get some heat to the radiator but staff said no heat in building yet but I'll try and get an electric heater it didn't arrive so 6 chilly nights!

Spent first night in noisy room with less than satisfactory plumbing. We were upgraded to a minimise for night 2 - excellent customer.er service. A great historic building that was lacking soul as bar was closed.
