Just across the road from the train station which was ideal for me, as i arrived by train. Short walk into town and several restaurants. Staff were always very friendly when asked for advise. Breakfast was nice although only had scrambled eggs when i prefer fried but other cooked breakfast items were tasty. Room was very clean and was very quiet at night. Only disappointment was that the lift wasnt working and i was on the 4th floor and im not a fan of heights.
