This hotel is quite quirky and may not be to everyones taste but i thought it was fab. Yes, it has a lot of steps to get to it but it keeps you fit and i liked the pulley system to get your luggage up outside the building. The room is spacious and clean with a few old artefacts. The shower in our room was small but lots of hot water and fluffy towels. Breakfast was ok. Location was great as right in centre and ten minute walk to market or five minutes the other way for pubs and restaurants. Being in the centre there was some noise of traffic and late night revellers but not excessive. Great value.

Not for anyone with mobility issues.

The area was central to everything so very handy. However we didn't realise that there were 59 steps from the front door to reception and our room! 3 times a day we climbed these stairs. There was a hoist half way up for luggage which was located outside an open window so be careful if you have children or are unsteady on your feet. The people were very friendly.
