Near the shops, but parking difficult and expensive. Kettle in the room could only be used on the floor as flex too short. Not as clean as would have liked.

Centrically located. Nobody at the reception when check-in so the instruction was given over the phone. We stayed the Yellow room and it was small and tilted which made me sick. It was dump and smelly.

The room did not have an additional safety lock in the door and did not have a shower (only a bath). Check-in was also difficult as there was nobody available when I arrived so I had to call and check in via phone.

Clearly needs some TLC to bring it back to standard, wall power sockets hanging loose, 'shower' is a 1 pint jug, door hooks unsecure. Generally just a bit tatty. And the bed has one of the most uncomfortable mattresses I've ever slept on.

The location is amazing but thats where it ends. It could be fantastic with some imagination and investment but to have to use a bathroom on another floor just isn't viable in this day and age. The decor was tired and the whole thing felt unloved.
