Ideal location if arriving into Taunton by train, less then 5 minutes from station about 10 minutes walk into the town centre. Also less then 10 minutes walk to cricket ground, the reason I was in Taunton.

Excellent staff, appalling matress (never had so bad), shower needed some updating and deep clean to remove the mould. If this was the 'Premium room' that I booked I hate to think what the 'standard room' was like?
