Although it was a short stay it was made enjoyable by the staff greeting when we arrived, shops/dining out everything within walking distance, wished a safe journey by reception when we left. Also very good value for money.

Good location, near the city centre and station. Free parking. Friendly staff. Room was an ok size but the bathroom was small. Unfortunately the room was noisy, didn’t seem like the window was sealed properly so could hear lots of noise from the bars nearby, despite using the earplugs provided.

Decent hotel close to station. Basic but clean room with comfy bed and not too noisy. Didn’t manage to stay for breakfast so don’t know what that was like. Helpful that reception was open 24 hours as needed late check in.

Good location near the train station and high street. We booked here because they said they had laundry facilities but this was not the case. They only sent out laundry to be done and this had to be done before noon and was a 24 hour service.
