The Place is conveniently located near the train station. The staff are warm, welcoming and had plenty of ideas for things to do and see. We received a complimentary room upgrade upon check in which was lovely. The room and bathroom was very spacious with high ceilings, large windows and it had a mystery theme. The bathroom also features a large soaker tub and double shower heads. It was also quiet. We highly recommend this hotel.

It would have been good to know there was no lift. Lots of stairs. Cashless bar and reception. Only snacks in the hotel were small bag of peanuts. The room was too hot.bed not that comfortable but too. Was big. No bath. Plenty hot water. Breakfast tasted great but service slow.
