Small room

Our room was an extremely small room. Had older style sash windows, no double glazing so there was some noise from outside. Fan and heater were provided. No takeaway food allowed in room, not that we wanted it but not known that before. Parking was on street parking, we didn't have any problems finding a space but it sometimes involved a bit of manoeuvring to get in on the narrow roads

I could not fault it

Room 4 was my single room with its own WC and Basin plus a shower room just across the landing for private use. A bathrobe was made available. The room I stayed in was perfect for any solo traveller. Hillary was lovely and ensured everything was OK The hotel is a 12 minute walk from train station with a local bus service passing close by. I could not fault it.
