Excellent hotel. Comfortable rooms and great showers. My one small gripe is that it would have been great if the fridge in the room had water in it - even a bottle of tap water!

Good value for money, clean and good location for town and theatre, although did feel a little unsafe at night walking back due to noisy groups and environment but perhaps that's an age thing ( mid sixties).
