Quirky environment, but pleasing. Very limited view of cathedral despite advertising room had a view. Very handy for visit to cathedral and view city. Breakfast room overlooks historic city centre. Car access to hotel through barriers somewhat tedious as was "not on site" parking. Overall totally enjoyable stay

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Rooms are nice and clean. Breakfast was good. Very quirky old building - all floors slope in a different direction which is rather characterful but walls between rooms are very thin. Would be happy to stay again.

A fantastic location with a large very clean bedroom. The bathroom was small but good with an enthusiastic shower. Normal coffee and tea making facility. My only complaint was the bed was rather small for two people. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Is definitely stay here again.
