Property was passable - quite old. I didn't realise I would have to lug 15kg luggage up 2 two flights of stairs. I'm 70 years old. Also they made me have $200 taken from my debit/credit card even though I had prepaid the room in full. Every other place does a pending but they were very rude and refused. They would not let me have the room unless I did this. I checked in Saturday and checked out Sunday and the refund did not go through until Wednesday.

Good location in the heart of the city and close to supermarkets/cafes/restaurants/shops. Room is very basic, so don't expect too much. Uncles Tavern and the cafe were very good for dining. Peace and quiet is what you are after, don't stay here. Internal car park noise and cars outside you could hear. The locals yelling and screaming. A different bar behind the complex, but not part of, had a radio blaring 24 hrs, for the time I there. Also, a pub next to the bar behind the complex, but not part of, also had music blaring as well as a live band. This did not go on 24 hrs. Due to 2 days of lack of sleep, I booked a room in another complex out of the town for the rest of my stay. Anyone reading this review, please note. Regarding the noise. This is out of the control of the property to maintain outside noise. You are in the middle of the town, and it is only to be expected.
