Pretty basic hotel, dated decor, but still clean and perfectly pleasant. I stayed on a Monday night so was quite quiet, but I wonder if it would be that quiet in other days.

Good location in the center of town, amazing staff very welcoming and was able to have a laugh with them. Room was a average hotel room but a bit out of date. Shower was good good to use. Some stains on the bath. Mold on the ceiling of the bathroom and wallpaper coming off. Light's could be cleaned abit better. Other then that a great 2 night stay.

Great Location

Only a short stay but the staff were excellent and the room comfortable enough for a 6 hour sleep - didn't really have much time to look around as I have a late arrival and an early train out the next morning but seemed clean, comfortable and right in the centre of town with about a 10 minute walk to the station.
