Great location, right in the town centre. Good sized room and the bed was comfortable. Pleasant and helpful staff. Breakfast was good and good portion size. My only critique would be there is no mirror at the vanity desk and the one in the bathroom was not in the light.

Lovely old hotel, but the service is terrible. Twice i have stayed here and won't again. Room was cold when i arrived and ask for and extra heater and they said the room should heat up in a few hours . Bathroom hadnt been cleaned. Bar team didn't want to serve anyone. Not food on offer tonight and even run out crisps. Last time i stayed here the breakfast was cold and very below the standard of paying 16. I though i would give them a second chance. But no improvement this time. Such a shame as the place could be amazing.

Horrible stay. Had to move rooms, water coming through the wall from a broken drain pipe with vegetation growing out of it. Hole in bathroom floor and broke tiles in very dated bathroom. Moved rooms and the bathroom was even worse. Black grout, dirty bath, water damage on bath panel and broke shelf. Unfortunately there were no other rooms available in any other town centre hotels or we would have moved. Breakfast was poor, not even proper orange juice and undrinkable coffee. This is not a four star hotel.
