Fantastic hotel

Stayed here with my daughter and could not fault the place. Rooms compact and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. Would have liked a small fridge, however pretty minor In the scheme of things. Breakfast was delicious. Every member of staff were polite, helpful and cheerful. Want to give a shout out to the Scottish fella on reception who extremely helpful with recommendations. Didn't catch his name. Finally location was brilliant. 5 mins walk from Waverley station.
