Fantastic value for money, location is actually excellent being out of the centre but still close. Neighbourhood perfect for some nice and interesting walks. I would definitely stay again. Down to earth, modest, but has everything for a couple of nights stay.

You can reach the main city attractions and restaurants on foot, so it is recommended for regular tourists. The room facilities are simple but sufficient, making it very worthwhile at this price.

Room was clean and had what we needed. Checking in after reception had closed was simple and easy. Glad we arrived in time to access a car park on the premises, would've stressed if all the parks were full as only limited on-site parking.

Budget for a reason…the room was poorly presented, very dusty and dirty. The bathroom layout lacked thought and the window blinds were absolutely filthy. Overall, the building is in very poor condition and requires significant maintenance and repair. The location is excellent and the bed was comfortable.

Parking terrible, never seen any staff, rooms very unclean, had to walk a metal gang plank outside second floor to access room, what I thought was a carpet under fridge was actually dirt and dust, room door looked like someone had tried to kick the door in, being an older woman travelling by herself the hotel did not no feel safe, i had to forgo 5 nights accommodation, Very unsatisfactory.
