Philip Vial
The rooms are fine, although bits could do with a bit of a refresh. Extremely comfortable bed, and the rooms were VERY quiet considering the central location. Nice comfortable bar/restaurant for lounging in. Apart from the location, the best thing about this place is the reception team. I have never seen such a friendly, helpful bunch in a hotel every. Whatever they're being paid is probably not ...

Reception was awesome, checking in especially, but everyone was so friendly. Breakfast was lovely.. clean, well presented, ample choice.

Shower was good, bathroom very clean. The bed....pillows weren't the best, stru...

There is a shop just across the stre...

My only complaint was the ...
