Value for money hotel. Perfect location close to city centre. Kind and friendly staff. Room was very small with a view of a brick wall but ok if you just wanted a room to sleep in. Clean but could do with a little more attention the detail in places. Very comfortable bed and good shower with nice toiletries. Room also had a fan, fridge, kettle which was useful. Good breakfast selection, issue with hot food was quickly resolved when highlighted to staff. Overall it was good value and I would stay again.
