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.

The rooms were spacious, easy check in.
Needed extra pillows which we asked for and they brought them to the room. Was an easy walk to the city so a good location.

Never saw anyone as regards staff. Check in/out was easy once had right code for key box. Room was adequate for price. Bed was comfy, could do with better pillows though.

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.

Reception was already closed at 5:30. No check-in info was sent until 4:00 same day. There was supposed to be on-site parking but there were actually only a few spaces. The heat was a space heater in a closet. Location is very central.

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.

Room was clean and tidy, bed comfortable. But we woke up to a hotbox.. no way to get fresh air, no fan to turn on, and the large window was like a heater even with the blinds closed.

The view that we had from the top floor was lovely, especially at night. It was close to town that we walked rather than drive and it’s really close to the Saturday market.
There was plenty of eateries to choose from that were a short walk away.
It was a great place to stay at to start off the holiday

The location is excellent, views from the balcony are great.
The showers were appalling, carpets were a trip hazard, building old and dilapidated, recommend bringing your own pillow.
