Outdated and a little overpriced

Bedroom although basic was very clean. Fabulous shower and bed was very comfortable. I slept like a log. Table at breakfast was very sticky needed a really good clean with soap and hot water. Breakfast was okish. Staff very pleasant. I had phoned day before to ask if I could have early entry to my room and was promised that if housekeeping had room done when I arrived that would not be a problem. Hotel is very dated. I would say my stay was a little overpriced for a small single room.

Clean and tidy.Food was good and a very reasonable cost. Room was a bit sparse could do with a chair or at least some hooks to hang your clothes. A tad expensive for the room as walls were very thin and easily overheard.
