Needed somewhere close to town for work social at the Saints. This was great value for money and the service was fantastic. I’d booked a single room, but it was too hot for me and they changed me to a cooler, double room for no extra cost at all. Great service. Thankyou!

When I checked in, I was automatically upgraded to a larger room. Staff were friendly and accommodating. My suitcase was carried up to my room by a staff member. I paid extra for the breakfast for convenience. Walkable to plenty of shopping and restaurants. It was a 15 minute walk from the train station.

Convenient for town centre and sightseeing but surounding streets were drab and run-down. Very small number of staff, who went above and beyond to make us welcome. No lift and quite a few stairs (could be tricky for some). Room was extremely small but included fridge - useful in the heat.
